This poem shows the thoughts of a pessimist, someone who has been let down in every aspect of her life, someone who is unable to see the bright side of anything.
I have lost all hope
Dreams have turned to dust
I hold trust only in nightmares
Miracles are pretty red carpets floating atop bogs of doom
If you have any doubt in my belief
Please go on ahead
Walk on one of those carpets
Bound you are
To sink…sink…sink
Never to resurface again
Immersed for eternity
Underneath the quicksand of despair
Hear this from me
I lie here at the bottom, trapped forevermore
Sending up wordless bubbles of warning
To those who walk towards the deceiving carpet
Those who still dream in rainbows of colour
Ever Sincerely,
Depresonia Maria
