Sitting here tonight
These thoughts keep running wild
To much on my mind
Now It's time to die
Shoving my way through the pain
Doing everything I can to escape
Got to think of another way
Something to save me
Before It's to late
Never in my life have I felt so alone
An emptiness so deep it cuts to the bone
Thoughts of you cross my mind
How could I have been so blind
To wrapped up in what I wanted to be
To see that all you needed was just me
Author notes
I know that reality bites, but I didn’t know it could bite so deep.

You've Been Tagged!
This is so sad. Be kind to yourself and take a moment to dwell on the good things in life. I know you are going through a rough time. Hang in there...oh and one more thing,
be kind to yourself. [That is vital

LIfe can be so hard at times. And yes reality does bite I know from experience as well. Wonderful and heartfelt write. Keep up the amazing writing, hugs Theresa

Interesting write. The emotional side of this had a good effect on it, and the flow was very effective. Great piece on a whole.

Wow, really powerful last lines there!
It makes an interesting read because the song is actually the opposite of what you've written!!
(It goes... Times like these I wish I could get on my knees, and somehow put my arms around the world...and make it better.)
I liked the sense of irony running through this write.
Something to save me
Before It's to late
I think everyone needs that.
Great work -

Powerful
Life does suck at times, I agree
A fine sharing in this contest; thank you for being part of it -
Great.

I found this beautiful. I love the rhyme! Keep on writing! And good luck!

Hmm well first things first "I" is a prouper noun and needs to be capiltalized no matter were it falls in a sentence. You need to fix that.
I love you poem you poured a lot of your heart into this. Loneliness really is a killer I hope you find someone who makes you happy.
My favorite part was:
Never in my life have i felt so alone
An emptiness so deep it cuts to the bone
Thoughts of you cross my mind
How could i have been so blind
To wrapped up in what i wanted to be
To see that all you needed was just me -
-
thank you
thanks for pointing that out, I always forget to make the I's capital. I fixed it

Oh, that smarts...
I am sorry for your hurt. Still, it is nice that you were loved for you. When it's there we sometimes find it hard to accept or believe.
Nice write. It should fair well in the contest!
