nightfall returns bringing another night of loneliness I see on the faces of every man and woman the looks of happiness and love looking towards the ground hanging my head in shame as I cannot look upon their faces to see the wonders they show for I had felt them once before never to hold those tender feelings again everytime I try to remember the love and happiness I had felt with family, friends, and loved ones but the heartache overwhelms me now remembering how my friends betrayed me... left me to die as they played with my heart made me believe in a love that did not exist then a love that I thought true she left my heart to rot in the bitter cold how can I feel happiness and joy when no one seems to care that I do not exist in their eyes and I might never will I am truly alone on this cold and lonely road staring into darkness wishing to feel love once more but I am just a lonely shadow living on the road of life unable to feel, only to see the truth that the bitter cold night that has tormented me for so long will extinguish the flame of my life giving the people I loved the people I cared for the gift I could not give myself the gift of peace the gift of my nonexistence Fear destroys the mind, depression destroys the soul... only love and compassion may save you from death. |

LonelyShadow~ Many walk a road such as you so capably described. Heartache can be very overwhelming ... but experience tells us that we have to get beyond it. Look up to see the light of friendship - reaching out to others is a good place to begin. There is someone else out there - with the same feelings ... but there is hope that shines in new friendships. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
