The sun shines brightly for some,
For others it casts a shadow that engulfs,
Hearts filled with greed.
I am just a lonesome person,
My past is shaded a dark black,
My mind infused with memories,
I dare not repeat to anyone.
I find myself lost in time,
Yearning for something unseen.
I travel many distances,
To find emptiness in me.
The skies grow dark when I'm around,
I try to drown my shame,
but it keeps coming back like an eternal flame.
Those who see me, seem to run in shock,
It seems I'm the one who's heart beats with the clock.
I remember the day that my father died,
Took his own life to save mine.
I do not hate him for what he's done,
I do not feel any sort of pain for what has begun.
The clock ticks away time and life.
My blood grows thin, the clock will win.
Time is only something that keeps people running in circles,
I do not fear time, it is just something there.
It won't bring me down, I just stare,
Hoping and waiting for it to one day die down.
The clock has ticked away many of my friends and families lives.
I'm still alive, but one day the clock will find me too.
When it does I will not cringe in fear,
I will welcome it with open arms, and soon sleep eternally.
Ok, I found this one just now in my room XD

It's amazing what I find when I'm usually not looking for it XDDD

Yeah, not a happy poem... but most of mine aren't ^^;

(I apologize for that)

And no this has nothing to do with my family or me. My dad is alive and healthy ^^

It was during a time in my life when things weren't going so great... :shrug:

But now I'm better than ever XD
