Darkness
Like a deep hole
That you can not escape
Being taken over by depression
Blackness

This is a very nice Cinqain. However line 4 is 10 syllables instead of the 8 that it should be. I wish I had time to allow you to correct it but I am in the process of judging. Plus, I had the rules to the forms posted clearly. Other than that this is a very nice piece.
Thank-you for entering the contest! Do not reply to this comment so as to remain annonymous.

I like it. Thanks for sharing. It had a lot of feelings put into this short but nice piece.

Depression and self-loathing is an endless downward spiral. I think you really captured this idea with you're simple, short yet powerful poem. Thanks for sharing

but at least within darkness and depression is perception of it which shows that blackness is more like a calling for some light then anything else...makes you want to sing gospel songs? I figure...if I can cry about it or grieve in some way, and talk to somebody about it, even when I'm being really annoying and whining, at least I'm still dancing a little and from there redemtion is bound to spark again. Think of the invention of fire. Friction between sticks or stones until something finally sparkes. Walaaa!!!!!
