I see not, I be not,
I struggle to be not forgot,
But die in the mire I have brought,
Never finding what I sought

I become nothing
Just a lost something
Cast off by myself to my cage
I became nothing
Yet it sparks no inner rage
Since I die in mire I have brought
Never finding what I sought.

In the darkness I’m there
For none to notice or to care
For who searches the dark of nowhere
But me and the spirit dead,
The pain screams inside my head
The imagined will not spread
For they are silent screams there
That my memories can’t shed
But will hide in the dark of nowhere.

It’s not the fault but of me
And my dismal tendency to be,
No arms holding will sooth
No gentleness easy my mood
I just wander in search of a tomb
Unable to ever escape this gloom

I see not, I be not,
I struggle to be not forgot,
But as always fail
And never prevail

Gloom

Ah Sir, your dark is despondent this day...
How I applaud those that can see clearly
in the dark, how they work with it, strive
against it, sometimes accept the warmth of it.  

I don't know that I could do so, but I am
proud of the people that realize their need
to be where they are.

Prof., even though I don't understand this, it is
very interesting to me. You know, there probably really
are people who feel this way. Being me, I just want
to be able to help them not to feel that way. But,
maybe the feelings for them really "spark no inner rage"
the way you wrote??
Hugs to you, Prof.

Thank you, Sunshine,
My despondence is usually dark,
my acceptance is equal to the darkness
we each do what we must to deal with ‘things’.
Where I respond in one manner
Others would respond differently,
You would burn off the darkness with the light of your smile
And I, without a smile, simply walk into the dark

Thank you, garysgirl,
Pleased you enjoyed, I would help you understand
If I knew the questions you needed answered,
But you, one of the light, need not worry about them
Simple keep avoiding the shadows

Thank you, Nan
I post all my main writings here
Glad you like them
