Walking towards the shadows
Turning away from the light
Looking for friendly faces
Yet nothing is in my sight
All the roads seem so gloomy
Feeling so alone within my heart
Bending down to smell the roses
Hoping for a fresh new start
But the roses are blackened
The sweet smell forever gone
My heart begins to race
For I dont think I belong
Sounds of crying is all around me
The faces I can not see
Lonely souls of others
Is this what I will be?




 I do not love you for being perfect.....
I love you for being perfect for me!!

I enjoyed reading this..I was thinking about this subject the other day..sometimes thru no choice of our own we find ourselves in a dark and lonely place but at some point we will make a choice as to how long we will stay there.  I recently came to the decision that I didn't belong in a lonely place anymore...and I will let go of my sadness and go on....this is not just a choice but a journey that I now have begun.   James

James,
    I am so happy for you that you have begun your journey out of the loneliness. It is a struggle that many people in the light dont realize.  I have tried the journey many times, yet my memories wont let go of me that easily.  Inwhich I know someday I shall be st free from the past pain.

Thanx


 I do not love you for being perfect.....
I love you for being perfect for me!!

Ah my friend Dark: First of all this is verrrry gooood .
Second, my friend, Turn around Your walking in the wrong direction. Face the sun and the shadows will fall behind, And what do we care what's behind.
I know it's the law you must have a rear view mirror, but no body said you had to use it.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

Very sad poem, I think we all take that lonely path at some stage, some for a longer period than others. Take Joel's advice it's well said
