Emotional Unsayable

Emotional instability remains a character defect.
            In all moments, I stand alone in remorse, 
giving nothing the reasons of why I am alone- 
                   I fear all things that bring obscure thoughts. 
     When the night falls to the shadows of dusk, 
when the darkness flows through my veins, 
                       I shan’t see what is right in front of me…my happiness.

Oh wow that last line really hits it home, Laura. I am kind of the opposite of you, feeling very grounded in life, but I sure can appreciate how this kind of feeling contributes to the amazing poetry you are able to express.

Laura, such a deeply emotional and intimate write. Happiness can be elusive if not invisible in dark times. Beautifully expressed. Good luck in the contest!
