He loved that feeling when afternoon gave way for the grim feel of evening. When the light in the sky passed over and made way for the dark. He could turn the light on but, no, he prefers the dark. Some people are afraid of the dark, why? It’s not the dark they’re afraid of, it’s what’s in it. But he liked thinking that there might be something in it. Maybe something will come out attempting to inflict more pain on him which unknown to whatever it is, will be exactly what he wants. Taking away the responsibility of him having to do it himself. He liked being surrounded by darkness not only in his head but outside of his body too. There is no light in the thoughts in his head, only consuming darkness. Haunting him, and causing agony. There is no lightswitch, in his head however. People become too dependant on switches and electricity, being told to get over something to him is like being told to turn on a switch that doesn’t exist. The only switch he does control, is his life. It’s currently stuck at the on end of it. No matter how hard he tries.. it won’t move to the off end.
Meh, this one was crap but I love being in the dark and I hate the light. The sun is the worst light I hate to see..

Not crap, my friend.
I like your writing. It has that depressive touch that you can only get from a truly depressed person.
Although I wish you were feeling good, even if it meant not having excellent passages such as these.
I think thats why I had them in my head (kinda) before all this and now I can properly write the words down.. before it was stories and passages but they were sort of muddled and unworded.
I actually wrote this one firstly because I looked up and everything but the laptop screen is pitch black, and secondly well, because you said you’d like to hear more..
Keep it coming, then.
If you got nothing to do, you might as well put your thoughts down, huh? Might help you get distracted.
I thoroughly enjoy reading it. I really do.
wonderfully written, quite interesting to read, i’ve never thought of things in such a way, however now you’ve managed to change my viewpoint
while i wish your life switch stays on, i wish mine would finally switch off…
