Lost to the darkness

I hate who I am now.

I was once someone that I admired.
Proud, Unyielding, and
Strong.

It seems so long ago now...

Now all that is left is the breaking
fragments of what
once was
and is no more.

And what was once good and beautiful has
fallen
into deepest shadows
consumed by evil things
devouring greedily
the light that no longer shines.

And what has been abandoned
to stay out in the open
to be seen by all
is the weakest part of me
and the most breakable child
needing guidance
needing comfort
needing love.

But none shall be received.
For all has been forsaken.

Lost to the darkness that erodes my soul
and leaves nothing for me to desire
allowing me only to see and realize
that I hate who I am now.

Author notes

And all shall fade away with the strength that once defined me.

    very strong piece. (how ironic, lol). basically i just want to say that you wrote this, you're admitting your weakness. that only means that strength can begin building. you will once be as strong, if not stronger than you once were. sadly, humans were designed to endure harsh situations and unhappiness. but you will find your truth, and your own happiness once this time of darkness is ended. i love you. keep writing, keep singing, and keep defining the amazing person that you are.
