Loneliness is a friend
it’s always there with me
Deep down I know
This is where I want to be

Darkness is my world
this place of misery
I’m locked in this world
where others can’t see

Black is my soul
the colour of night
strongest of feelings
show me what is wrong and right

There’s no one here for me
I’m lost as I can be
I need someone, anyone
I feel so empty

Darkness is my happiness
nothing left of life
stabbing deeper and deeper
sharp blade of the knife

Pain is a friend
it’s all I know
it’s all I feel
It’ll never go

Colour of my soul

This is a poem I wrote probably six or seven years ago now that I think about it, back in the days when I suffered from depression and wasn’t the happy, well rounded though somewhat strange person that I am today. At the time I came second in an Australian wide poetry competition for it so someone like it I guess.
