"Depression looks like an empty glass
with a closed rim. No matter how you fill
the glass it will never be full."

I miss
you
the way you talked to me;
when you would make me feel,
like everything was perfect
i miss the comfort of knowing;
you will always be there.

I hear all the time: "Don't say goodbye, because that means going away, and going away means forgetting." But not to me. Going away is spending my two-in-the-mornings writing melancholy letters to you for which I'll never buy stamps, no matter how true my words are. Going away is rewinding the memories twenty times over every time I lay in my bed to go to sleep, so I can play them over again and just maybe see where I went wrong. Going away is swearing that I don't care, but punctuating those two-in-the-morning letters with stabbed periods that dent the page anyway.
Going away is not forgetting. Perhaps I needed a goodbye for that.

I hope one day,
you'll fall in love as I did with you, so deeply that it hurts, and so beautiful it is melancholy.

She can't remember the first time,
she heard the ringing, soprano laugh, gentle like bells on Christmas morn, but she can remember the last time she heard that laugh so warm, before it grew cold and full of scorn.

But love is not for the daytime.
It is to be whispered at night between lovers, shy, scared words that could make or break a man, said into skin covered in a sheen of sweat. It is to be said with tears in your eyes, with pain in your soul, or with wings on your heart. No, love is not for the daytime.

In your life there will always be people who love you,
or people who will one day love you. But sometimes that doesn't feel like enough. As a human, your body, full of nerves sending electrical pulses to each other, is meant to feel. Your heart is designed to beat.Your mind is like a wheel that has been designed to spin in so many different directions. Your hands are curved in just the right way to hold another hand, your lips are designed to be pressed against another set of lips and to whisper sweet nothings. You, as a human, a living creature, are designed to live. Never give that up, and remember, your lungs were meant to breath.

"I watched her die," she whispered near silently as she placed her hand on the marlbe tombstone, which was wet with the melancholy tears of the sorrowful September sky.
"Have you got any clue what that is like? To watch someone who you love, who is your heart and your soul, slowly fade away to the edge of sanity and to stare, helpless, as they fall into the abyss. It is horrible, there are no words to describe it. I watched, day by day, as she broke into a thousand little pieces, and each day those pieces were broke as well. Each day she fought so hard, and it was nearly impossible to watch, especially on the days where she would get better, only to find herself waking up the next morning worse off than before. It was a nameless evil, watching her die. It was a nameless evil to see her as she faded away into sorrowful nothingness."

Her eyes were sad and grey,
they were like the rain at night, and they were like the storm inside.

Life,
is the only real disease. Everything else, all the illnesses in the world, are mearly side effects of the ever present destruction with which we are gifted the moment we have been conceived.

I watch
as the sunlight begins to fill my room, and still I haven't slept, the thoughts of you keeping me awake, thinking about what I should have said and all the things I didn't say.

"She doesn't talk about you anymore.
Not like she used to. Now, when she hears your name, when someone brings you up, one of the few of us who know about you, she'll cringe and look at us with these eyes, those brilliant, melancholy eyes of hers, and for a moment you think that all the sadness of the world has been forced into this one body, this one heart that is so fragile and so close to breaking. Then, she'll put on a smile, one that's so obviously forced it's nearly painful to see, and she'll change the subject. But she misses you, I can tell. Some days, she'll be looking out a window, or daydreaming in class, and you can tell it's you she's think about. Her eyes go kind of sad, and she looks hurt. That's how I know. That's how I figured it out. She doesn't just like you, she loves you. And she needs you. She needs you to care. You're the only one who matters anymore."
