Drifting Thoughts and Lingering Feelings
An interesting thought came to me. A very... painful thought. One I don't have the courage to change or challenge. Maybe it's because not only am I too shy to challenge it, I'm a little too broken inside to fix it. To fix myself and my esteem.
So, I thought of this something. It's a little funny. A little depressing. And to me? A little poetic, and here's how it goes:
So... you meet someone, right...? And the two of you get close. Oh, so close. You're happy,you're comforted, content about it. It's all great for a while, y'know?

But then, all of a sudden, someone stops trying. Whether or not it's because you were to shy or nervous,
He steps into the darkness,
To watch his world burn bright,
The world he thought was harmless,
Now burns with his rage-filled plight.
He treads lightly on the rotting planks,
Praying they not break,
If they really would've lasted, he'd have given many thanks.
Now he walks on lonely roads,
With a burning, empty ache,
And finally he finds himself among the ships that sank.
Filled with burning hatred,
At the world that is his foe,
The young man finds the many ties,
His anger must comply.
He finds his mind in turmoil,
His thoughts a muddled mess,
He can feel the anger boil,
Stopped by his loving heart's caress,
He works mind's endless toil,
