Bottom

I'm hitting bottom, I'm sinking 
in deep. It seems impossible to 
keep my head afloat. I have no 
outlet other then this sheet of 
paper. The ink that stains it is 
every dark emotion trapt inside 
my heart. The friend with no 
reply that knows all my 
personally sinister thoughts. 
Writing should be written with 
true emotion. Tears won't roll 
from my eyes, but these pages 
tell a sad story. In person you 
wouldn't think it was me behind 
the pen. Creating this some 
kinda poetry. My dark side 
exists here along with my 
weakness. This new level of low 
isn't me. Change is the only 
must. I'm hitting bottom, but 
it's time to get up and brush it 
off. Need to live for a brighter 
tomorrow.
