A Beautiful Disaster

The cradle of despair.
The ever-winter air.
Is anybody there,
Beneath this dreadful moon
Evoking thirst for tears?
I'm screaming - no one hears.
I breathe the same old fear
That I'll be dying soon.
My soul strays and hovers,
My heart is under covers,
My lonely secret lovers -
The clouds and the sea -
Can grant me no salvation
Within my heart's temptation.
In this dilapidation
I see no way to flee.

This strikes a chord. At least you are writing artistically, and that is good. Loneliness sucks. There must be some good way to meet good people locally and be at least somewhat happier...

Deep pain very well expressed. I like your rhyme scheme. Good work.
