this tore at my heartstrings

I'm sure there are many of that can relate to this sad poem. I don't want to be in *nothingness* any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!


For the Drunk in The Little Prince, who drinks because he is ashamed, and wants to forget that he is ashamed of drinking. It makes me sad, for some reason.

I wish to be and live
I cannot under this weight
My heart no longer mine to give
Nothingness is just too great.
So I come to you again
To quench my inner pain
To drown the thoughts within
From memories and shame.
So I drink again, to forget
My being and my name
And I drink again, ashamed
Of the drink I’ve come to get.

hi

i did the doom and gloom a lot in the beginning, too

get a book of poetry
start with favorites
you can turn it around
a sort of "the way it was, how it is now"
and write really nice stuff

i go for this one, it has a lot to say
