The innocence of birth will be corrupted by its life. A child’s mind is theirs alone. The bliss known in childhood is tarnished by the burdens of responsibility. As the seasons come and go, so do our care-free days of the past.
No confrontations; no worries. Then the bitterness of reality shows its unmerciful head. Confrontations and controversy are the foundation of destructive tools of the people’s sanity. Anxiety has become the norm. Tangled webs of emotion cling to the subconscious. Anger is embedded within the body, the mind, and the soul. No one will ever escape. Purgatory is our own reality. To dance with the Devil is to plead for destruction of the souls boundaries. The blinding lights of salvation are dimmed by hells fiery core. The pain will eventually erode to nothingness. The eyes of angels are upon us. Tragic irony. This will become our reality. A nation founded on the discoveries of time. Corporations capture our lives. Held fast will be our free will. Life hangs by fragile threads of fate. Dream of a world to come. Surface, angry nightmare. Your purpose is known to few. But you will know, shortly; change is inevitable.
life is bleak, but dman do you make it sound awful. though there is little chance to achieve something great, that dosnt mean life is what you say it is. there is nothing more saticfying to me than existing if for no other reason than to better understand myself. once in a while one must look to the big picture, but it is very unhealthy to stay there. true shame about childhood though.
DarkChaos, just because the world does not seem this awful to you, does not mean that it is not this awful to others. If you get a great satisfaction out of existing, then I admire you… but please have some understanding for those of us who don’t see existence in such a pretty light, and do see it through the same eyes as Spiders_pride.
I personally could relate very strongly to this piece of writing, and really enjoyed the way was it was written.
This does a pretty good job of describing the chaotic stream of consciousness that is the perception of the world for many of us. The “Fitter, Happier”-esk flow of the independent statements connected in unnatural ways enhances the mood of the passage.
Not bad,

very philosophical. i liked it.
An interesting view on life. Very thought provoking. I think it’s true for some at all times, and true for all, sometimes. But I would hate to think the world was really so… trapped. Maintenance of our optimism may help to also maintain an element of those “care-free days of the past”. For what are children if not optimists?

geeeeez, the worlds bad but it ain’t that bad. Always remember to look at the beautiful things before you go dissin this world. Theres still a lot left in it that so many people miss. I pity people who miss the finer things in life.

I agree with vix, strive to keep your mind open, pain is inevitable – but change is ever constant….
Well said vix, it is a serious shame that so many people don’t see the wonderous beauty in the world… this place could be so wonderful, it was ’till we came along, so why can’t it still be beautiful? I know it can get depressing sometimes, but you mustn’t let it bring you so far down when there is still such a source of happiness.
I’m very sorry that you have such a negative view of our world – if we worked together we could stop it being purgatory & make it eden… tho something tells me that won’t happen any time soon… … you know, I woke up happy this morning…. I shoudln’t have signed in today……
Love you all… even if you depress the shit outta me

That was painful to read…
Either you were trying too hard to put a lot of depressing and chaotic stuff in there or my bronchitis is just deciding to come back and bite me in the ass right about now.

Oops =X
Damnit, sorry.
Don’t worry about it illuminati, it’s happening a helluva lot recently. Pain in the ass tho …
Your writing is amazing, though blunt. Morbidness hangs thick like unswept cobwebs, spiders stuck inside are waiting for you to fall prey, and when you do they will poison you and pull you further into their lullaby of venom.

I am moved…All this is true, and yet so many refuse to believe it. How foolish, to be grasping for something better when all along the same black image is there right before our eyes. It will not change, and it will not get better. Mankind is really nothing more than an example of some of the more interesting group of animals…You have such a clear vision of it all that some would mistake philosophy for morbid rantings
sometimes we only see the bad things because we don’t understand beauty. and we don’t like things we understand. how can you say that things will never get better? sometimes saying that is a self-fulfilling prophecy. if you think things will only get worse than they will.
if you think things will get better, true they will get worse first, but you have to hit rock bottom before you can bounce back.
Thank you all for your comments. Although I don’t see how some of you can look at the world and the way we are now and see anything but pain and sorrow. But I am glad that my work could inspire debate on the pros and cons of all our lives. Please keep the comments coming. Thank you especially Dante. It means more to me than you know.
