sadness – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

Ask III

All I want is a comforting message,
Safe company, and a warm hug in the dark
Kindness shouldn’t be that difficult

Ask (Poetry Series): I, II, III

Take II

Thinking about continuing is pointless
A spoke on the wheel, unseen, irrelevant
Keeper of the scythe, obtain my soul
Every road leads to this lonely void

I’m Honestly Not Fine

The world moved on long ago
I’m still too far behind
Why am I still like this, though?
I’m honestly not fine

My gentle smile’s just for show
My fuel’s in decline
Is time moving fast or slow?
I’m honestly not fine

The world has forgiven me
But I still feel maligned
I can’t move on and be free
I’m honestly not fine

My heart is in constant ache
The sun still couldn’t shine
I’m still stuck with my mistakes
I’m honestly not fine
