Optimistic

So you’re drowning now.
Your body is not yours anymore,
It’s only dump carried by the sea.
The water’s so salty and
So hard to ignore.

So you’re choking now.
Your face is buried in the sand,
To bury hot sand in your chest.
Involuntary convulsions won’t let you rest…
This is not the shore!!

So you’re looking down…
Was the sky too lightened?
Or you got blind as you tried to see...
Was the step you made worthless
Or it’s just the way you want it to be…

So you’re falling now.
Violent waves of air
Spread your thoughts everywhere
Until they don’t even exist
Cause for you there’s no somewhere.

So you’re nothing now.
Violent ticks of clocks
Spread your existence everywhere
Until it doesn’t even exist
Cause for you there’s no sometime.

So I’m sitting here watching you…
Knowing there’s everything I can do.

You’ll reach the shore tomorrow.
You’ll find the way to breathe
Your step will find relief
Knowing it’s not worthless.
You won’t be afraid
Of being meaningless
anymore.

And I’ll be smiling with your light in my eyes.

I've just written it. It's for my best friend, who is kinda depressed now. i just wanted to make him smile and show how much I care about him. guess I made it, cuz he smiled when he read this. and I smiled back :D okay, so tell me what you think about it and what you feel when you read it, it's really important for me:)

ok,I may be a retard(in fact,I am),but this isn't optimistic at all(that's what I think)."You won’t be afraid
Of being meaningless
anymore" damn that's depressing.(ok,maybe I'm in a bad mood and should read it again in a while)don't take this comment seriously.

okay. firstly, you're not a retard:D secondly, all the depressing stuff is exactly the way my best friend is feeling right now, I've tried to show him that I know how he feels and to convince him that he will be okay, that all this will pass, that I'll try to help him, cuz he is so god damn sad, that he won't even listen to me. that's why I used "now" and "tomorrow". He read the poem, and said he really felt so much better, because he was sure that there will come a time when everything will be totally okay. thx for the comment and for the honest opinion, I appreciate it :glomp:

I love this poem. It is depressing but in a way it makes you feel better. I don't know how that can happen but nice work getting me to read depressing words but not get depressed. Very interesting. :hug:

"Angel of Darkness, thee we praise
To Thy black arse our lips we raise
Let Thy black visage fill our gaze
Steep us in Sin for all our days!"
