Best Depressionlight Poems


Light of the World

The light 
of the world 
is in my way.

The light of the
World never lets
me fade!

In My Grave

A weak shout louder than a gun shot
Out of a mouth full of depressed misery and dead emotions
A walk to infinity
A search for the light in a place so bright, yet so dark
Between sun light and dawn
Where birds sing for roses

Away in distance
Where destiny lead my way

It's going to be okay
Last words my ears choose to hear
To relieve the pain in my heart
Darkness filled my eyes
Don't try to make it shine
I smell the end
I feel the tears of grief drowning me alive

I lay down in my coffin
Under the soil
In the freezing ground
Isolated from all around
No need to make a sound
Or wear the mask that hides what's beneath

Surrounded with woods
beneath the ground just as I was
Tossed as a stone
Like a leaf fallen from an autumn tree into a lake so deep
With my skinless skull and wrist bones where cuts of regret cant be seen

I lay In my cave
In my only home
With my only friend
My rival my enemy
I can't let go...

Thoughts rushing into my mind
Bursting in and out
Words I never thought I'd speak
Words my tongue never dares to say
Well...now I know how it feels
Now after I'm gone

My lips are fading
My soul is drowning
My body is decaying 

I reach the limit
Where heart beats doesn't matter
Where I can't breathe the air
Where my only road is to hell
I'll bathe in fire from this day and forever

Never made you proud
Forgive me and make it better

Two roses laid on my grave
Endless time passes as the sun goes by
Nothing stirs 
Pure melody in silence
A selfish wind blows taking with it one 
and there goes one in vain dropping it to far away
I gaze through emptiness
Waiting for my eternal time to end
For my angel to appear
And save my weeping spirit from my sins
Which have become my reality...

Hiding Behind a Smile

Behind my smile 
I'm so hurt, so angry
Can't really tell 
I hide it well
But when the
Spot light stop shining and the
Doors start closing
Pain rushes back to me
A feeling I don't like
I hide behind my smile well

Curtains back up
Spot light shining
Place my smile back on
Now I'm hiding
So I pretend to be a 
person I'm not
Hiding from reality 
Hiding from all the hurt and the pain 
Hiding
But once again the curtains close and
All those feelings
Come rushing back 

But now I have
To take center stage
So now I begin my final act
All smiles one the outside
But deep down inside I'm crying
No one can tell
I'm a great performer
Once again I hide behind my smile

Curtains down for awhile now
Smiles replaced with a frown
So ends my final act
But just for a little while
'Cuz I know my
Audience will be back
And when that happens 
I will begin my act
“Hiding Behind A Smile”


Dark

The shadows lurking in the dark

A light that only makes a spark

Illuminates the road ahead

My feet feel like lead

As I trudge along beneath the trees

The wind whispering on the breeze

I move the branches from my face

As I keep um my steady pace

Not very far to go

The things that await I do not know

I see a light as bright as can be

It awakens the soul inside of me

At last the place I’ve been searching for

Now my heart can rest once more

Empty and Unworthy

I despise my own ungrateful soul of unworthy love that has rejected the light so much so that the light turns away. I feel my own cry for help for it wells up in my soul. My tears fall on the inside but no one sees the ones on the outside.

Hurt

Its nostalgia that killing me from inside 
      its worst I know
Never I ever felt such ,
         Its making pain and it grow.....


The path is as clear as mud
and I can’t even shed tears to make it flow 


The time is moving, The next sun is to glow
My eyes wait to see
but mind refused though.....


Soul is charming, its laughing ,its quite busy in dreams the real self feel empty 
and it even can’t scream……


Its constant ,its flowing,
its toughness that surround
The stones i know better
   Then the living beings around


The feelings are  light as light as straw
but where to fly how come they know



Sometimes it hurts it hurts deeply I know

Despair

Im drowning in my own remourse
my life changed it went completely off course
shattered dreams of empty times
its dragging me so far down I feel blind.

The sun has gone
my light is grey
im just hoping my sun will return
and lighten these tormenting days.

Im normally strong and brave
I gave, I gave, I gave
my light is shade
im not strong and brave
my light is gone
someone please rescue me
and rebuild my soul strong and brave.

Heaven Help Me

Heaven help me
I know I’m hell bound
For the sins I’ve done
Are nothing to what my thoughts are now
For this is the path I walk

Heaven help me
For I live with the sinners
Dreams are dark and twisted black
I’m burning inside
Torn apart and toss aside
For this path I walk

There is no way you can touch me
I’m too far gone
The only light in this life
Is the one glowing in the night
Cold holds me tight
There is no love for this one

These eyes see everything
Yet I am blind by blue fire
These ears hear everything even in a whisper
Yet I am deaf by black fire
This voice speaks the truth
No matter how painful it is
Yet no one can hear me scream
For this is the path I walk

This touch I have
Can frozen the warmest heart
This touch I hold
Can burn the coldest of eyes
This body of mine
Is nothing but hate
This body is mine
Ugly reminder of being a failure
This is the dark path I walk

Heaven help me
I know there’s no light for me
For my sins are great
And my thoughts are hate
Dreams of someone loving me
Is a joke of wasted faith
For this path I cannot change

Innocents Lament

He watched as she lay there in almost never ending sleep. Her cries 
echoed and pleaded, but he could not help enough. Her smile faded and 
her body dissolved. He could only look on with tearful eyes. Pain of 
loss, fear, and anger whirled around.The storm raged out of control. 
Innocence fading, and a childhood filled with doubts, he built the walls. 
He sealed them up and gave them little freedom, although he only 
wanted to lessen their effect. Too late to stop the prison was created. 
Locked away a light still shone, it's glow dimmed by the darkness.  His 
eyes began to close as hers began to dim. Her body lived on, her spirit 
fled. A few times she returned, and his walls began to shrink. Then the 
night stole her away, and the walls were iron clad. He looked towards 
the prison to which he held no key. Sighing mournfully, he saw the light 
was almost gone. Leaving on the path to find a key, he knew innocence 
was but the first loss.
