I cry

Guards erected
walled emotions
never to find the
freedom to soar
against the azure
skies of hope

I am alone with
in the silence of
my own castle of
miserable taunting.
Ha, thought you
found the one as
the wind shrieks
it's callous calling

Drowning
swallowing all the
bitterness my cup
spilleth over and
begging for more

Can't take it
looking towards
tomorrow and not
being able to see
anything except the
black knight of
despair

I am nothing
I feel nothing
and everything all
tied into knots in
the gnarly stomach
of this broken heart

Take me
shake me
rake me over the coals
or just leave me to drown
hopeless
      helpless
             miserable
                     alone and

                              lonely

Author notes

I just wish I knew that one day I will wake up and not care about this man any longer.......he meant the world to me and my heart is crushed....so so crushed and no one knows how my heart seems to just seep.........I can't talk about him, they don't understand. How can they when even I don't understand?

  • So emotional. And so sad. *hugs* I understand how you feel, it is very hard to understand, I know. I am very sorry your heart has been broken, like mine. Hopefully, you will finally get over this man. Other than that, I really loved this poem, it was just excellent.

    Lonely

    There are many forms of loneliness. Some are just alone. Others married yet still alone. I have been witness to both and your words are exactly how I felt. Now I forsake the human touch in alomost any form save for my children, grandchildren & close friends.. Smile poet.

    • It saddens me to know that other's feel this way....it's such a awful thing to have allowed some one else so much that when they walk away this is what we are left with! I live in a house full of people and yet....I am alone. I keep looking for tomorrow and I hope you will as well. HUGS Marie
  • I hate that people can make others feel this way, seems very wrong doesn't it.

    This is my first reading here, I hope the standard is all as great as this poem is!
