Feeling pain
So dark and dower
I'm sitting in
My darkest hour
With no love
To give me power
Only feelings
Oh so sour

Sometimes I think
It's far too late
For me to find
My one soul mate
It is this truth
Which I now hate
I've done my crimes
And sealed my fate

There's just one thing
I want so much
The blissful joy
Of simple touch
I'm not the type
Who needs a crutch
I just want someone
That I can clutch  

I look around
And explore
Only to find
A stone locked door
I come across these
More and more
But that's my life
Which I abhor

I know not what
More I can do
To find someone
To pull me through
My blackest times
That I'm into
Is there a savior
And is it you

I'll keep on searching
That's my right
Until I find
My guiding light
That will come free me
From this fright
And keep me warm
Throughout the night

Someone come fix
My heart that's seized
I can not harm you
I'm not diseased
I will not beg
Now on my knees
I simply ask you
Touch me please

G!  I touch your heart, the core of your very being with my hand in friendship and understanding.  I too have known the lonliness you've described.  To be touched and understood, such simple requests but sometimes so hard to find.
Great exploration of those feelings hon

Such painful longing....this heart knows how you feel..but gave up hoping a long time ago that it would feel that touch....

Very touching and expressive poem. I know that lonliness, and it is very painful. I hope you find your soul mate someday.

Thank you all for your wonderfull sentiments. But let me assure you, I'm really not that depressed. I've acceped my situation and am ok with it. If you all knew me in person you'd know that I'm a rather light hearted and some what insane guy. (Yes LM, I am all male.) Though these thoughts did come from me, I do not show them to anyone. I express my darker side here bucause it too is a very valid part of me and a part that very few understand. But you great people do, that's why I'm here. I consider myself to be a very dark poet. Now weather this is just a phase or my over all writing style, only time will tell. Some of you know that I am very capible of writing more up beat peices. But that's not what's coming out at the moment. I listen to that voice inside my head who gives me the words I write and at this point in time that vioce is a very sad and angry one. (I told you I was a bit insane...LOL) Perhaps one day I will find that special woman who will awaken my lighter side and inspire me to write love poems again. Who know?

Anyways, I won't drag this out any further. Thank you all once again. I'm glad I was able to touch you with my work. Jest please try to remember that even though my works are rather dark, they are only poems and do not necessarily reflect who I am in person. These are just my "Dark Passions".

Take care all!    

G

P.S. OOPS! I just cought a mistake in my wording which I have now fixed. Sorry!   It's fixed now!

Bye all!    < !signature-->
