The Thing In the Mirror
What
Is this, thing i see in a mirror?
The only
Thing that follows me,
Reflecting my moves
Deflecting my light,
Stalking me everywhere but
Making me more than just
Lonely
No one around
But the thing in the mirror
Stalking me in cloaks of shadow
As we walk in a maze
With a path that
Twists my mind
And leaves that
Kiss my cheeks
Unable to find my way out
Leaving me more than just
Confused
The ground blurs like
Green that is soft, brown that is rough
Then blue, that sparkles
Then blue, that engulfs me
Weightless and I just want to
Lie here
Forever, in my sea
Of something more than just
Depression
Light shines and filters
Through my closed eyes
And forces me to open
Not just my eyes
Disconnection from my thing
I see in the mirror, stops
Buzzed by the light
Feeling my limbs splutter
Spinning the wheels in my mind
Keeping me closer to the light
And further from the bottom blue
That blankets me, which I kick off
Giving me a fresh taste
Of something sweeter than air
And more than just
Hope
Then
Another thing in the mirror
Brought me somewhere close to the
(Light)
Making me fix all
Mirrors cracked
Polish the dust off
Where it didn't belong
Heated me like a
Summer day
With more than just Love
The thing in the mirror
Now follows me, with the
Other thing in the mirror which
Gives me the company
It
Showed me the way out
Taught me how to hold my breathe
Shone through me like light
Showered me with warmth
And finally
Placed a crown on my head
Made from a little more than just
Bliss

So like i only write poems (is this good enough to be counted as one?) when I'm reaaaaaally sad. So being sad is both good and bad. Bad.. With all the bad emotions swirling in your tummy and heart, good with being able to write. I write better than normal when I'm sad. But i can never write poems with emotions when I'm happy. I can write nonsense that ryhmes though.
What do you guys do when you're down?
Usually i go skating. Skating as in inline skating. I used to do a bit of sliding: Powerslide, Acid Slide, Magic Slide etc. It's basically sliding on the wheels of your inline skate. But i'm rusty now, so i just go as fast as i can, jaywalk (skate), jump around and listen to loud music. It's really good because it burns off all that excess energy that seems to radiate from you like mad. Skating is epic win btw. Any of you guys enjoy it? Or bicycles… Or skate boards?
Or I write stuff. I hardly finish the writing because sad just flows away from me and I just stay numb. Numb makes me unable to write stuff (damn).
Sleeping helps <3
