The sky is black

Some days you just wake up and become the scum of the earth. Despite your attempts to wash, put on something clean, and mask it all with a smile. Somehow the rest of the earth just seems to think that you're the villian, even if they've only read half of the story.

On these days when you wake up and can't find a face that seems to understand or is willing to listen for more than five minutes, the only option left is to sink into the abyss hidden deep in the crevices of the mind and not emerge until both heart and mental cavities are replenished.

Of course, the dismal "sky is black" , "woe is me" mentality will not work for everyone. Believe it or not I tried it and was only able to cry like a bitch and lament living for all of twelve hours.
