Is this it?
Is this what I am to be?

Too many tears I cry alone,
tot lacrima.
I feel so terribly alone..
When will this end..?

tot lacrima...

My translation skills may require some computer assistance now and again =)
Your poetry however, needs no assistance,
and translates much better than you think.
Is the purpose to weep ? Life is joy and sorrow.

Life is meant to be enjoyed, not just endured.

Thanks for your reply.

When sorrow is felt as a second skin,
or an integral part of this human condition,
try and remember this. Only so far, are we ever, separated from bliss.

Have a good one.

No. On the contrary, there are no words louder than the simple ones written here. The sum of frustration is conveyed abruptly, suitable to the mood of the poem, and the use of tot lacrima is awesome. Wonderful.
