Emo Poem

Dark Place

Today is another day, another day in this dark place.
It seems as if time is standing still,
Not moving.
Trapped!
It’s time to stare at the clock,
Wait for time to set me free.
Because once I am set free,
I will be able to live my life,
Without having to be in this dark place
Without having to think about this dark place,
This dark place pains me everyday.
Yet I go back,
Because of my passion and my dream,
If it weren’t for my dream,
I would have left,
Many years ago

But the dark place eats me up,
The dark swallows me whole,
And I am left no choice.
Go or die.
I don’t want to die,
Not now, not ever,
But I know this will never happen.
So here
I find myself
In this dark place
