I wrote a poem last night and wanted to put it on here.
When Life Falls Apart
I
Won't ever
Understand
Why
So much suffering is on earth.
We try
To make the best of it;
Fix our circumstances,
But we fail. Fall.
A deep, dark pit
Yawns before us.
At the bottom,
There is no light,
No upward path.
Just memories, sorrow, pain.
Regrets, choices, ghosts.
The way we act
When life falls apart.
It leaves wounds.
We bleed.
Our souls die.
No Hope.
And yet.
There is still Hope.
Somewhere in the darkness.
Huddled, like a child;
Afraid.
Afraid of what was lost.
Afraid of what could be found.
Afraid of Life.
Afraid of Death.
Afraid to dream again.
To start over.
To build up.
But we know we must.
Start over.
Adopt Hope.
Begin living again.
Fight our way.
Out of the dark.
The hole.
The emptiness.
Others help us climb.
Through the pain.
The misery.
And when we stumble,
They help with our burdens.
We build again.
Build strength.
Stamina.
Resilience.
We grow our hope,
In our hearts.
As we get closer,
To the light,
Hope spreads;
Vining outward.
Ever upward.
To the light.
To peace.To living again.
We take the pieces of our lives;
Once scattered,
Across the barren wastelands
Of despair.
And put them back together.
Little by little.
Until the pain is gone.
Healed.

They were awesome, just a different kind of awesome, y’know? Like Shatter Me has really beautiful language and is a little less messy than some of the more recent ones, but the emotion in them is so strong that the messiness helps it rather than hurts it.
…that was a horrible description sorry.
