Fade-dead


Fade

Fade into the darkest of times

The loneliest of moments

The greatest struggle you shall ever oversee

And overcome it all

 

Overcome the darkness

Overcome the lonely, and the struggle to great

Overcome your utmost feelings by pouring them out

Pour our feeling out onto the worn dusty pages or a story book

Illustrated with the images you mind has developped

"you are ugly

and weak

and stupid

and no one will love you" 

 

Dump those feelings over the pages 

Like a water balloon letting water seep out into the lucious grass

Let your feelings overtake your pencil and create the words of truth

Let it out. 

Do not become fade-dead

For you are far too young darling.
