joe_shmoe3491 pov: me in the back of the school choir

Twilight engulfs my vision.

[Where am I?!]

I’m lost in precision.

[LET ME OUT]

It’s only a matter of time now…

[GOD, CAN ANYBODY HEAR ME?!]

Heaven awaits the crowd.

[The void calls for you.]

…

I keep sinking… Rock bottom doesn’t exist for me, does it?

No end is in sight when I’m sinking deeper into the sea like a stringless puppet.
Empty tides crown an empty ocean.
Every mile deeper strikes emotion.
Deeper into the scenic sea I descend without end, seeing what I left on the surface above me. Please just love me.

Yet, no rescue ensues, for every second that passes by, It’s my own heart that I lose.
Open my skull and rewire my head, for it feels like I’m dying before I’m dead.
Universe upon universe knows I’m alone and lonely.

These fading rays signal to me what I’ll never reach in a million years.
Only you… All I see, and all I hear.

Leaving the surface behind, I come to the realization that I’m never going to reach rock bottom. There’s no such thing as rock bottom, for you either get crushed under the pressure, or you swim back up before it’s too late.
Oh, my dear… I can’t be with you, for you’re so much better than I. Alone forever, I realize that we’ll never be alone together. On my own… never to get better.
Violins draw a sweet tune in A Major for me, yet it beckons forth a melancholy attitude from the depths of my brain, and calls upon my name. Churning Cellos of Chance bellow a mellow melody into the waves, and the Trumpets of Death announce my fate.
Everytime I close my eyes, I see your face looking back at mine. I can’t get the thought of regret out of my mind, for everything I’ve done overtime has ruined my life.

My eyes drift back up to the ceiling, and I interlock my fingers on my chest. My breathing gets slower, and the muscles around my eyes tense. “I’m alone…” I mumble without emotion in my monotone voice, staring at the empty abyss of space. “Nobody wants me to be theirs, and nobody will ever be mine.”
Everyday, a couple walks by me, and I feel empty inside. Life keeps reminding me of what I don’t have, and never will have again. I’m alone. All alone.

Lainey🌚 Not really, no.

Wow…

Whoa! You came up with this?

finneass <33 I got a poem called ‘i wish’ too lol

Standing on the platform of heaven, I gaze out the window to the stars around us. Earth gets farther away as we ascend higher into the intergalactic nothingness.
These stars shine for us, my love. If only you were here. If only I wasn’t alone
Ethereal voices sing in sync for us, darling. Hold my hand as they shout our destination’s name, and as the trumpets of death blare a final melody for you and me.
Leave this huge world behind and flee with me to the sea of cosmic ecology, where we can be alone together for eternity. As our elevator of time rises into infinity, feel your past worries leave your body as beauty awaits thee. These scenes upon seas of stellar beams bleed streaks of heat from the streams of galactic steam, stars’ cloudy debris sparkling distantly for us to see.
Let the universe speak as we leave our home behind, and let me keep this lie that it’s just you and I. I’m not alone, for you’re right by my side, thy light shining for my eyes; a sight only I am meant to find.
Alone at the edge of the universe with you… But I must realize soon.
Realize that you’re not here, and that I’m shedding tears. Clear as crystal, I hear the stars growing near as I steer into the white ball.

Today I rise to see the white ball in the abyss of space, to enter the face of gray graves.
If only you weren’t too late to join this place.
Days no longer matter as I play in time’s plane, the 4th dimension entering my brain.
Everything is getting gray, and I can no longer feel my own face.
Something is astray, out of place. Crazed haze from distant gamma rays hit my membrane, and I fall back in pain.
Something is killing me as I drift away, and I’m slowly going insane. I was so close to reaching the raised drapes of windows home to panes of stellar names.

The pixels arrange to show the illusion of an endless community of social interaction, of long distance friendships and relationships. If only I knew at the time. If only I knew how alone I am.
Here, I realize the huge wall that separates us all, the screen’s plastic exterior, the pixels and the endless stream of signals and wavelengths.
Everybody is together, and alone. We’re all pretending like we’re together here, but we’re all sitting somewhere and reading pixels on a screen. You’re all so far away… So far…

Signals connect us, but we stay apart regardless of how much of us is broadcast. I wish I could really be there with you.
The waves of messages reach across the sky, measuring how far we are from each other. You’re not right here with me, no matter how much you try to tell me. You’re all the way over there, far from where I can hug you, to laugh with you, to… to talk with you.
All the way across the land, I wish I could be there with you. I wish you were here with me. Thy heart is pure, and you’re all alone while I’m lost in the signals and wires.
Reach across the sky and tell me I’m not alone. I’m alone without thy majesty.
Stay with me in The Screen.
