This poem is another vent poem I wrote a while ago. I had just been dumped by an ex because my depression was so bad. Trying to meet new people was extremely hard for me then, so this poem describes my anxiety of meeting people while depressed. This poem was written in 2015.

Written by me, Fane Star.


I'm alone when you're gone

Alone when you're around

Darkness surrounds me

Yet it does not taint your vision of me.

All I think, hear, and see

Is the pit inside my heart.

The pit that surrounds me

The pit that controls my being.

I basked in the temporary relief

Your love and presence gave me

Soon the dark will spread

Into your heart, your eyes, your mind.

Tainting your love for me.

Your vision of me.

Surrounding us.

I'll be here to catch you

When you fall into this void.

When the lonely darkness overwhelms you.

It'll take all you think hear and see.

It'll become the pit surrounding you

The pit that claims all.
