Reaching Yesterday is past and only memories remain, Of happy times and of times we wish never to see again. We will cherish some memories forever in our hearts, And try to forget some and make a brand new start. The present goes to quickly and passes us by. Oh so quickly does time fly. Moments are so fleeting. Never are they repeating If only to happy moments we could return, The bad ones we had would be spurned. Forever we would live happily, In our world of pure ecstasy. Only happy moments would be had, Never returning to those we found sad. In the blink of an eye, bad times are gone. Nothing in that world could ever be wrong. If only I could live in such a place, Forever a smile would be on my face. In this place I'd shed no more tears Such as I'd shed for so many years. No memories here of why I wept, They'd vanished into thin air as I slept. Id wake each day, with a bright smile. Thinking of happy thoughts all the while. But sadly there is not such a place. Here only shadows cross my face. As I sit here and think, tears fill my eyes. The memories flood back, making me cry. Oh uncertain world, I hurt so much. I forever need a soft, gentle touch. I feel so unloved and so alone. Will I always be on my own? I'm surrounded by darkness, never light. I wish that from this place I could take flight. Only in my dreams the perfect place exists. The sleep of forever has become hard to resist. Maybe this is the only way I can be free. From the torture that plagues me. Its come to the point I've lost all hope. Its come to the point I cannot cope. It's no longer the time for pride. Now is the time to decide. Do I live with the hurt and pain? Or never touch the earth again? Or could it be there's another way, So without hurt I can face another day. If only I knew what I could do. If only I knew what way to choose. But I don't know where to begin Taking my life would turn salvation into sin. I sit her alone with my thoughts. Inside me a battle is being fought. I wish I had someone to take me by the hand, And show me how to make a stand. Because whenever I try myself I fall, Plummeting back to it all. |

Hello Eve, welcome to DP. I wish I could go to that wonderful place you describe also. Very heatfelt writing and if it is about you, please let me say that leaving the earth is never the answer. Although it seems life is so much more suffering than joy, still we are here for some reason. And to try to love and be loved, and maybe touch someone in some way, I guess that is all we can do. And dream. I am real big on dreams.. Take care. Catalinamoon |

Thank you Catalina, i really appreciate this...Yes, this was at a low point in my life, but now i just like to read it and reflect on it...i'm big on dreams myself...but sometimes dreams are so far out of reach, and tis hard to hold onto reality when reality just wants to crumble beneath your feet. Eve ...:) |

Eve..."Will I always be on my own"...such a question. It hurts if you ever have to say, "Yes"....I hope you never do. Hardrock |

Eve welcome to dark passions hon. This poem describes how we all feel alone and unloved at times. Without preaching here you have to believe and hope for a brighter tomorrow, and you can start right now, today, by surrounding yourself with loved ones, family, friends, or pets even!! For a little love is better than none at all. Life is a hazardous journey, so like a sponge, soak up the good when you can, and later, memories of that love, give you the strength to carry on... *hugs* wonderful work  I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Hi Eve, glad you found us at Dark Passions, Welcome!! It is very scary to think of having ourselves only to depend on, and please know here you are never alone. I agree with the other replies, and we have to find our path in life and make the journey, for there is a purpose to everything. Hope to hear more from you!!! |
