Ok, so I managed to channel some of my more rougher emotions last night into a poem I think...personally, may be one of my best. Its something that I just tapped out with my eyes closed and let the words come. There is no real rhyme nor reason, a first for me, but it holds some powerful things that I think I havnt felt in a while. Some of you know the reason, some dont, but here is the poem, critique is welcome. Sometimes an outsider's view can see some of the smallest details.
Anything Worth Living For Is anything worth living for? Anymore Is anything to fight for?
When all the lights go out In the end of conflict You lose everthing All your closest friends What is there to live for? What is there to fight for? When the darkness falls And steals everything away
When pain wrenches at your heart And makes you want to die You fall so far Into sorrow and grief What is there to live for? What is there to fight for? When the darkness falls And steals everything away
When you know you are alone Abandoned and in doubt You cry like rivers Until your heart screams What is there to live for? What is there to fight for? When the darkness falls And steals everything away
The Darkness has come now I knew it all along Is anything worth living for? Anymore Is there anything to fight for?

Hmm...the answer must vary from person to person. To some, there is nothing to live for. Others, have everything and anything to live for. So the answer lies within the individiual, not the mass. To each one must answer their own version of the question. So Roan, the anser you seek can only be given by you. Slyph, apparently your answer is yes. Mine....I shall keep to myself for a bit longer.
Thank you, everyone who made comments on that, its really appriciated. That part of my life is over, but I guess my words will remain as a constant reminder, and that is how it should be. Words hold memories stronger then the mind does.
Glad you're feeling a little better Dev. Remember, venting is good, revenge is better ^^ Ok, I didn't mean that, although living happily is often the best revenge, in which case I did!
Uh, Mr. Mystery Man? Grow up. There's always something to live for, unless you've been listening to too much emo crud. Listen to some good ol' fashioned rock and cheer the hell up. I have no time for people who pretend they're all unhappy and suicidal when there's so much good stuff around them that they just refuse to see. If you're upset, that one thing, but do something about it, make it better, like Roan, and stop confusing teenage angst for real problems. Confront your problems! Destroy the things in your life that make you sad by being active! Jeeze, it's not hard, and to stop fighting, to stop living is nothing but misguided thought and cowerdice. Being sad is one thing, but don't let it destroy you.
Not necessarily directed at you but I feel the need to rant about people who think its cool and useful to hurt themselves over nothing.

um... poor Roan *hugs again* The poem is good, just try and follow it as close as you can, eh? And I love the avies; very pretty and smothered in coolness. I just hope whatever it is that has got you feeling terrible gets sorted, k? Oh, and I'll try not to bother you until after 1pm GMT in future
Your poems are beauteous, as always. You'll pull through whatever it is that is before you, for as long as I've known you, you always have. *hugs*
But as for the whole avatar business, none of your eight awesome pics are related to me in any way. They're yours. So as far as I'm concerned, they can be used as one pleases. The one being you, since you made them, and anyone whom you'd give them too.
Now I couldn't help it, but my FAVORITES are: Wind, Earth, and especially Nature! GOOD JOB!!!!!
Sometimes we are lonely More then we can stand Sometimes we are fearful Darkness takes us by the hand
Sometimes we are sad And shed many tears Sometimes we are hopeless Lost without cheers
For every tear that we cry There is a smile out there For every nightmare we have There is a dream without scare So long as we cry So long as we fear Someone else is at peace Somewhere else is clear
Sometimes we are hurt And feel many pains Sometimes we are doubtful As we watch as it rains
Sometimes we are angry As we are put down in life Sometimes we are frustrated As we see all this strife
For every tear that we cry There is a smile out there For every nightmare we have There is a dream without scare So long as we cry So long as we fear Someone else is at peace Somewhere else is clear
So keep on crying And shed many tears Because of your sorrow There are many less fears For every person that cries There is one more smile So maybe those tears Are worth your while
If this is to end in fire Then we shall all burn together Watch the flames climb high into the night
