This was my first addition to DeviantArt.

They see strength,
Smarts,
Speed.
They see smiles,
Laughter,
Happiness.
They see a costume,
A mask,
A lie.
Truly,
I'm going to pieces,
Thinking,
Worrying,
Filling with despair,
Being told lies that get my mind going,
Letting my imagination get out of hand.
Those that truly know me,
Say I need help.
But I refuse,
And harden my heart.
Then one day,
It breaks.
It cracks
And it all comes pouring out.
I sit in my room for hours and weep.
For all I've lost, hated, and loved.
Maybe it's all in my head?
All I know is that I'm going to pieces.

My God. I come back here a year later, did these words really flow from my fingers? So miserable, so poetic... It makes me realize just how much DA saved my life. I was pretty depressed, but I've found friends to talk (type?) to, stories to read and laugh at, and other people in much worse states. I like to believe that I've helped them out with a helpful comment here, a nudge there, and loads of encouragement to be happy. That's what I do. I spread whispers of hope. Life is too short. Don't end it now, there's so much more for you to learn, and love.
