Clean: An Anthology

Night

Night.
Euphoric, beautiful night
where the city girls drink and party
where the country boys laugh and be merry
where I fall victim to insomnia

Fear.
Wrenching, haunting fear
where rationality is sacrificed
where I scream silently and nobody hears
where dreams disappear in the dust

Paranoia.
Intense, glaring paranoia
where the past won't stop replaying
where the future intimidates me
where I jump at nonexistent shadows

Despair.
Hopeless, trapped despair
where rays of light are gone
where life is bleak
where there is no future
and the past
is
me

A/N: This one is really old, from about two years ago. Depression poetry, man. *shakes head* I was so emo and melodramatic, oh my God.
