Beauty Or Ugly?

I look out my window at the perfect sunset but see nothing as my heart is breaking. Everything that was once beautiful is now dreadfully repulsing as all the light in my world is gone, ripped from me in a horrid way. I look out my window at the kids playing and envy them. I'm only a kid, why can't I be happy and carefree like them?

profound write, felt the raw emotion behind this, it is sad that this must happen and that when our joy and love goes, so to does it seem to go away from the world, we cannot see it because it hurts. Just keep your eyes open and you will be surprised by the true beauty hiding out there, even if it never feels like it. Excellent write congratulations on you feature. keep it up! --Madison
