Hidden Evil

The town was beautiful,
even the people too.
Flowers and joy,
and the sky was ice blue.

The people of the town were together,
they all felt at home,
apart from one little girl,
who was nothing but alone.

She looked at her reflection,
she stood and she stared,
there was something great inside her,
but nobody cared.

Then the skies opened up,
just as she had planned,
the evil inside her grew,
as fallen angels filled the land.

The people were in panic,
they shouted and they cried,
but the little girl stood calm,
as she watched the people die.

'Oh, lord have mercy upon their souls'
The little girl said with a grin,
she knew what she had done,
'Let the chaos begin'

The sky closed up,
she was once again alone,
but with all the angels gone,
she now felt at home.

The town was destroyed,
the people were gone,
ashes and flames,
and the girl's evil had grown long.

The Uncertain Future

In a dark and desolate world,
there are groups.
Groups where people fit in.
And then there's me. Alone.

I'm scared.
I don't know who I am,
and I don't even know if the world is sane.
After all, sanity and insanity cannot co-exist.

All hope is lost.
All desire is destroyed.
All peace is broken.
It's just me against them.

A world of endless possibilities and infinite outcomes,
countless choices define our fate.
Are we all destined down this path?
Destined to destroy ourselves?

You built weapons to destroy us.
The people who were different. Why?
We are the future.
We are the ones who inherit this earth.

A war on our streets,
in our cities.
And this makes me wonder,
is the future truly set?

L'Appel Du Vide

The top of the cliff,
up so high.
A woman stands tall,
queen of the sky.

One lone soul,
one soul alone.
Wanting to stay here,
but wanting to go home.

She stands on the edge,
ready for the fall.
Then closes her eyes,
as her mind hits a wall.

She didn't want to jump,
to leave it all behind.
But the voice in her head said,
'Go, don't be confined!'

The unknown lays before her,
so much to explore.
She opens her eyes,
before she closes them once more.

It looked so appealing,
the space above the ground.
The drop wouldn't be long,
she'd be gone without a sound.

Edging forward,
more and more.
Thinking about life,
there's still so much more.

But she still carried on,
and took a deep breath.
She stood up tall,
and jumped to her death.

The fall was smooth,
almost no sound.
But before long,
she reached the ground.

She didn't want to die,
she didn't want to leave.
But there was something about it,
she was too naive.

Her family didn't know,
they didn't hear her plead.
But what you don't know,
is that the girl was me.

L'appel du vide,
the call of the void.
It looks so great,
until your wold is destroyed.

-Just a side note, I am fine, this is just to show how bad people can get because of others and I, myself am not depressed. If you are then please talk to someone, even me. I am more that happy to talk about some of these things if you need it :)
