Introduction

Taking over my will. Bitterful. Empty. I walk this earth a souless being. Burdened with despair towards existence. Destined to live this life with no significance.

Discomfort

Give me a sign for why I am alive. Waiting, searching, I have yet to find a reason why I should strive. Does this life hold meaning or was I just put here to die. If everything has purpose then what is mine. Why cant I pull myself to do this. I fail to see incentive for this life. My endeavors have brought me nowhere. Leading me to believe that life isn’t worth this grief. Consistent failure. Death seems more welcoming. Desperately seeking some relief from all these thoughts that continue to fill my mind with doubt. Stuck in this state of mental anguish. Trying so hard to not be consumed by my fears of never finding contentment. Spending the rest of my days wasting away. Waiting for a reason to strive. Searching for a release from this state of mind. For once I want to be happy with where I am in my life and not let this carried weight constantly pull me down. I’ve had enough. I’m fucking sick of feeling so worthless.

Golden

Just when I thought that my life was golden, situations stir up and it's proven broken. Face down in the dirt, I get kicked even lower. Nowhere to go but lower. I can't escape. I am blind, but I see my fate. Nowhere to go but lower.I can't stop these thoughts that cloud my head, praying for death everynight i lay in bed. Soon I will break from this pressure. I can feel myself getting closer. I'm at the edge. This life I am living is broken. Why cant i feel? I have become numb.

Condemned

Unaware of how corrupted the lives are that we lead. Taught to walk through life blindly with no certainty. Inducing fraudulent perceptions onto society. Compelling a helpless future to comply in negligence when we’re left to deal with the mistakes mankind has left. Digressing from serenity, we’re condemned to a life of duplicity. Refusing to succumb to this delusion of falsehood that I’ve been left with. As I continue to search for clarity I’m only left with adversity. Brought into a world that has no place for me. There’s nothing left to confide in, in this world. I fear for the life of the world to come. Broken promises and a false sense of reality. A perpetual rat race and nobody that takes the coveted prize. Left with a future plagued by the mistakes mankind has left. Condemned to a life of ignorance.

Pathetic

Distraught. My whole being holds no merit. Futile attempts at forward progess have led me astray. Contemplating suicide, constant misery. No end in sight. These thoughts have taken over. Nothing makes sense. I am so lost. I can't continue to live like this. I will never be one for optimism, negativity will always rule me. Constantly feeling desolate in this place. I've come to terms with my fate. Death is the only solace. I've been awaiting its embrace. Awaiting death's embrace. So It's time for me to face the facts. Come to terms with my only fucking option. There's no such thing as a healing process. The time is already gone. There's nothing left for me.
