Here goes

2 min read
I really need to get some stuff of my chest. so i'm going to write a poem. I'm not a poet but here goes...



I feel conflicted
That's it,
conflicted
I walk onward through life
never looking back
Because I know if I ever did
I would slip

and

fall

I would fall down
                  down
                     down
down into the dark abyss
that took so long to escape

The                            dark
 that                     pulls
     and             tugs
         suffocating
             me
surrounds me and holds so tightly

             n
             d
the more i struggle the faster i drown

But i know that if i throw a thread up towards the light
you will catch it
I will hold fast to that thread
           because
as long as we are connected

I will never succumb to the darkness within me

SO like some people have told me i need to post more things but these people don't understand what that would mean. That would mean I'd have to get off my ass and actually scan in my drawings. i suffer fro s serious disease known as laziness. Do not take this lightly. It is a disease that affects millions of people. It cause people to procrastinate, to be extremely messy, and to never do anything ever. Sadly there is no known cure. Until a cure is found, I must silently suffer through this maddening disease. And you people must wait for me to decide not to be lazy and post some shit. sigh the world is just so cruel. Oh and  I'm busy playing Majora's Mask. Super awesome game. Laters! ;P
