Ex isle

No goals to reach

No trail of hope to follow

No dreams to live for

Will I make until tomorrow?

 

I crave attention

But I am never missed

I’m always in love

But I am never kissed.

 

I try my hardest

To put on a smile

But tears well in my eyes

Because I’m isolated in my own ex isle.

It's a very straight forward poem with very clear messages. There appear to be three separate messages here that are explained in three stanzas. I like how straight forward the poem is, and it isn't so vague that you can't understand it. I would consider taking another look at it though. I see that the only symbol appears at the end of the poem with the "ex isle". If there were more consistency with these symbols, then the poem might take on a more symbolic light, and thus be a little more interesting. The poem, at the moment, is simply an expression of what someone is feeling, with no style. If the poem had a hook, or some style added, it would be great. :)

I really love this! so far it's my favorite of yours "I'm always in love/ But I am never kissed." is my favorite part. It's just so perfect. It describes what everyone feels amazingly, I
