Depressed Adolescent

Story 1
 Repetitive thoughts
 Repetitive attempts
 Repetitive conclusions
 This is truly the imperial state of
 discontinued belief within one’s self.
 The comparative subconscious that leads
 to solutions of no hope.
 The alternative to how you proceed upon
 your future assuming cowardicely on if you
 reach it.
 The triumphant abstract that is melancholy
 that immensely deteriorates the self esteem,
 well being and minds generous capabilities  
 yet increases the state of guilt, suffering,
 self induced hurt and paranoia that lurks
 within yourself towards yourself.
 Individually you find yourself within multiple
 conducted simulations that all sought that
 singular element of positive fulfillment.
 But lead towards the predictable tolerated
 result that has been continuously thought 
 of to be inevitable
 
 Chapter 2
 Thus far there has been no fond of
 substitute.
 A version that can better this experience 
 while compute.
 There is no other feeling that can resonate.
 Even discussing this matter with another
 person could startle a fearful monologue.
 That belittles the attempt to a tempting 
 thought that shall not be carried out.
 Once again thus far.
 I have lost the ability of laughter and love.
 I have lost the enjoyment of seeing my own
 life progress.
 I focus on pain.
 The only element within life that feels real.
 What have I become
 The epiphany of my early death seems
 most pleasing to my eyes.
 I imagine this unseemly occasional peace/
 force multiple times.
 There are days where committing an act of
 sin in fortunately optional.
 Yet confessing, repenting and praying feels
 rather impossible.
 
 Chapter 3
 Pain that has been inflicted upon me in
 mental, verbal and physical manner seem
 rather fit in my perspective predicament.
 Yet when shall I realize that when in this
 melancholy state I commit dreadful cynical
 act’s.
 The one’s that derive me back towards the 
 path that I had begun
 
 Chapter 4
 Lord I do not have the reserved right to be 
 considered one of your holy anointed son’s.
 I have gone through detrimental phases of 
 thought.
 The trials and tribulations have taken place
 often, yet I only seem to fear your power
 and have the inability to confide and find
 myself through you.
 I now sign off knowing this has been a 
 confession conveyed through anaphora.
 This is much deeper than the poetry and 
 loss of living through creativity.
 This is a boy with greatly intended emotion
 That has transfigured into a young man with
 an in depth insinuation mentality.
 And now lives in hourly fear of his fatal 
 reality.
