I am Disappointment. Mourn for Me.

just something i wrote to clear my mind.

I am nothing,

Nor never will I be,

Anything that resembles a person,

A human being.

I'm frail and frightened.

Too scared to live but too scared to die.

I am a hollow shell of a person that once yearned to live.

Glancing by as the world leaves me behind,

I am forsaken, for I have no future.

But my past is far too bleak to stay nearby.

So I move forward to the darkness that has bound me to this empty world.

"Give me rest, Give me salvation!"

But my words fall on deaf ears.

I am ignored, I am forgotton,

I am only what I will never become.

I am weak and never will that change.

Lead me toward the exit and there I will fall, bound by my own chains.

My heart crys but yet it feels nothing.

A barren emptiness that has laid waste to my forgotten soul.

The air is stale here.

But my hunger is great.

Lead me from temptation and I will lead you to damnation.

Let me rest in the Devil's lair.

As long as its for eternity,

For the light that is Heaven bound,

Is too bright for my aching, blind eyes.

Take me further into Hell,

In order to teach me my own sin.

I only beg of you once more,

To bind me to this eternal flame.

For I am disappointment,

And disappointment does not compromise nor does it gain.

For it is nothing,

And never will it be,

Anything that resembles a person,

A human being.

You are not a disappointment and far from nothing. This was a great write, deep and great flow.
