Purity
Profile avatar image for Twinkle
Twinkle in Stream of Consciousness

Growing up.

Through mists of tears,

Reflects a misery.

The fallen truth

Of Lost purity.

*********************

Somewhere in darkness,

An exquisite white budded,

With the eyes of the stars

Igniting the cold-blooded.

Having a transparence like water,

And radiating light like diamonds,

Brightening the world

With a smear of innocence.

Darkness spreads.

White eliminates in black.

They come with seducing tentacles,

To steal, to kidnap, to hijack.

Strangling the little white flames

Until their light is blown to ashes;

Squealing a goodnight lullaby above

When purity crashes.

And this dark world,

Falls back into silence.

Challenge
Depression. What is it? How does it feel? What's it like? Can you define it anyway that makes sense? No word limit, poetry preferred. I am missing so many of these! Please tag me, RowRow1990

Twinkle in Poetry & Free Verse

The familiar feeling.

Be it a heavy mist with the blackest intensity.

It creeps in, without warnings,

And explodes into a viscous darkness.

The overwhelming voices scream inside your head;

A black that spreads and grows but never leaves,

A black that drowns, suffocates, controls, murders.

Sirens fill your mind with tentacles,

Demons gnaw your soul with fangs;

All you can feel is pain,

Ever-lasting, numb pain.

This whole parody is an irony;

For you wish for it to stay,

To torture and kill your sanity.

As when it leaves,

You have nothing left but

A silent emptiness,

Trickling until the next hurricane comes.

Grandpa’s words

"Goodnight,"

As stars diminish

In your eyes of galaxies.

Lips.

The devilish red

Churning, slithering;

Hell flames on my skin.
