Why I write sad/disturbing things

I'm not a morbid person. Really, I'm not.

Yet whenever I write a short story or a poem, it ends up being disturbing.

I think that this has something to do with my interest in psychology, and why people act the way in which they do. My life so far has had no abuse, and I have never hit anyone with a stick (that's a reference to a story I wrote in 10th grade). Often, when I attempt to write a happy story or poem, it ends up sounding overly peppy and sickeningly sweet to me.

This is not to say I have never written something that is happy, I have. Though they are few and far between.

So, that's all for now. I just wanted to let you guys know that even though I may write sad and disturbing poems on here, I am not a morbid person.
