What am I doing?

Yes. I'm posting something. The world is ending. Head underground and make sure you have enough food.

No actually I wanted to try something new. I've never been one to write songs, poetry, and all that jazz. But now, taking into account my recent mood and outlook on life, I've decided to give it a shot. It is sort of a calming experience, in a melancholy sort of way. After seeing what I wrote from an hour or two of sitting in bed with my laptop, I'm not even sure why I'm posting it. It's pretty craptastic but I figure I got nothing to lose anymore so why not share it with the masses:

1.
Repetitious shades of grey
Overflowing in constant escape
Connected by endless inconsistencies
In an ethereal blanket
That suffocates the world.

Dampening hues of humanity
Amorphous monotony
Uniform discord
Screaming at artificial reality
Where everything matters.

2.
Luminance exists when searching with blind eyes
Radiance can be found behind the curtain
Find the glow and you will never be cold again

3.
Two halves are searching
He got caught in traffic
The other took the subway
But she forgot her jacket

Destinations are the same
They don’t really know that
They’re content to live alone
It’s a force of habit

One day they may realize
That they possess a ticket
To a place they’ve never known
But they know they cannot take it

For this place they cannot go
Is known as satisfaction
When two halves meet they need the glue
But it was absent from inaction

Emotions can be a bitch
When they control your life
Especially when you’re missing half
And you’re holding the knife

I'm going to sleep now, and when I wake up I'm going to regret ever posting this. Thank you sleep deprevation.
