Sorry if this is a repost --- it's just that when you post in a different forum, I feel like we're not sharing it with everyone...and vice versa.  So, don't be mad if it's only a repost

Love is unequivocally the architect of one’s sorrow and  misery
The reason for a never ending constant flow of suffering
Resolve, to this a continuous stabbing of undeniable depression
Reality’s version of veniality and damnation
The spell that casts a curse to carry the fires of hell
Even just a glimpse is actually earning you the right to grieve
Hard to accept on one's self,
but hypocrisy is indeed what it seems to be
So, tell me this with truthfulness
Am I not to claim even an ounce of happiness?
Do believe when I say that I actually try
Either I’m  foolish enough to believe in such change,
Or that it’s just my plain stupidity that drives me to
I too try to dispute it with my own claims of innocence...
That in an attempt to cheat or hustle life’s cruel intentions
Though it seems like time’s hands are already most certain
A conclusion that such an assertion is that of no merit at all
So, how am I to justify this, my excuse for an existence?
Or is it that I’m in destiny’s list for the process of extinction ?
For I am the unwanted,
The unworthy,
And most certainly
The unloved....

Hey I don't know you but I can't let you think this way!  Oh, it's a sad piece.
No one should ever feel this way!!!

Believe me, you are not unloved nor unwanted. Because you're here, you are BOTH!

Awsome write... very awesome...

BTW, we all know about the lack of encouraging little notes. I wrote an entire poem on it.

Look not to others to
know your self worth
God gave you that at
the time of your birth

You must love yourself
before others can see
the value you have
and all you can be

So know in your heart
God has a great plan
and you have a leading part..nona

Don't know why but these words just came out when I read this had to repsond.....

unwanted - I don't believe so
unforgotten - definitely and also unforgettable

Every time a woman rejects me I feel this way...although our happiness should not be so dependent upon another...because when they choose to go of course we suffer..
yes just recently I felt unwanted and unnecessary...sometimes we do have to struggle to find happiness...it doesn't always just appear...James

I was going to write out all my favorite lines in this poem, but I would have ended up typing the whole thing over. I did though, finally, manage to narrow it down some.

"Love is unequivocally the architect of one’s sorrow and misery"

-and-

"Even just a glimpse is actually earning you the right to grieve"

This second line particularly - is so true, and so well expressed. Methinks you need to get over this writer's block, and post more.

Your path is well trodden here,
for all of us have felt our share,
of pain and depression.
It makes us believers,
in hope.
