I walk this path to what end unknown
My mind is blank and heart cold
There is a need to push on, yet no will to try
My goals are unimportant, my life a blur
A will has been broken
A predetermined destiny taken
The riches of life are gone
The systematic rituals now rule
The heaven above I no longer see
The hell below does not matter
With my losses abound this timeless voyage
As well as the redundancies of pushing on
I have come to realize you are not who you are
Leaving me to conclude
I am alone



 There's a peace inside us all
Let it be your friend
It will help you carry on
In the end
There's a peace inside us all
(Creed)

Being alone is the worst place to be, but whether or not you know it, thers always someone who cares.


 Love isn't a miracle in life, the miracle of life is love.

baerlon, this is a sad and moving expression. Loneliness is a powerful force, and always a source of inspiration for touching poems...like this one...
your signature verse is also inspiring...and speaks the truth... "peace inside ourself"...
we are never really alone.
take care

 Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme,
They are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be described by words,
Forgiveness and understanding-
remain the most beautiful words ever heard.

This was a great poem. It really speaks the truth of how many people feel. I know I felt that way not too long ago...Alone, that no one cared about me, and I didn't care about anything else for that matter either, but in the end, you find you really never were alone. Keep up the great work! I can't wait till you post another poem!

day to love someone- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone."

To question something you have always believed is almost as difficult as the loneliness you feel after the conclusion. This spoke to me very much, thank you.

We are never truly alone, there is love in each life everyday, perhaps you need to look for it, but it is there and you will find it.
From a family member, a friend, a neighbour.
Someone.. (HUGS)  For I know this feeling and it's taken me 30 years to realise the truth..

 Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.
