Darker Tendencies of My Mind

Despise my beliefs of sanity.
Contrast my thoughts of desire.
Forsake your own ambitions.
Give in to wants my needs.
Forgive my distrust of honesty.
I am only flesh that speaks.
We will always wither in happiness.
Wake in my souls inabilities.
Thrive in my breathless life.

You're right - we do have a similar vein running through our poems. I also use poetry to vent emotions that are difficult to share.

Just something to describe how I am feeling atm. Darker then most of my other poems but, ehh sometimes we just need to vent somehow.
