Do any of you write like short stories or poetry or anything? Just wondering. I write poems sometimes as a form of stress/depression relief. And no, I’m not emo or anything, I just like to write when I get depressed.

[Here is one I wrote the other day.

So familiar these feelings that come over me  
Like a drowning sensation that won’t let me breathe  
Once again here I sit and slip into darkness  
My whole world collapsing, I feel so heartless  
Oh God, please no I beg “not again”  
These feelings of hatred, sorrow and pain  
But all I can do is sit here and wait  
For these feelings to come, sealing my fate  
My entire life, nothing but a waste  
Bitterness of failure, all I can taste  
I know what I want, I see it at last  
To grab hold of my life and forget the past  
But past and present failures control my life  
Leading to self hatred and feelings of strife  
Depression takes hold, throwing me to the floor  
Until I have no will to fight it anymore  
Staring at nothing, just a human shell  
I know I’ve created this personal hell  
All I have ever wanted, all I ever ask  
Is for that one bit of joy just out of my grasp  
So close I can smell it, but not meant to touch  
That feeling I can’t have that I want so much]

Yeah I just have a shitload of stuff recently dumped on me and it really helps. I know alot of you are going to think I’m just some whiney emo bitch…but I don’t really care, I like to write. It is one of my stress coping methods…and seems to work quite well. I shared this poem because I thought it represents the general feeling of depression quite well.

I occasionally blog some stuff, or write some songs and/or poems.

Only at work, (Ex. Random snack review thread, Taking a moment to appreciate the Universe (the multi-page epic), etc.)

But only at work.
