RE: Nyctophobia

in #poetry8 years ago

Thank you for your comment, it means a lot. I assure you though, this poem is the opposite of a suicide note. It's more of a complaint about the depression that follows abandonment. The title's reference to fear of darkness hints at the fear of the unknown that accompanies abandonment and the uncertainty of new surroundings. I don't write suicide poems, I write what I feel, and I love what I feel. I'm just 16, why would I stop what I love just because it's brutally raw and unsettling. My poems are my life, and just like my life I wouldn't end my poetry because I couldn't handle the pain they hold.

Brutally raw and unsettling are my favourite!

Haha, yeah, I see where you're coming from. It's as appealing as dark humor, and it rhymes! How can you get any better.
