No Happiness...

I'm not happy

I never am

I have nothing of my own

And myself to blame

Not having a reason to live

Not having a reason to stay

Locked inside a world of pain

Trying not to go insane

Living alone

Nothing left to fight for

Without a home

I'm laying on the cold floor

Without parents

Being abandoned long ago

My hope dying

Along with my ego

Now I'm nothing

But a rock without color

Living a life of horror

Fearing every breath

Fearing my own death

Sick of being alone and distressed

Sick of feeling scared and unnoticed 

I'm alone and unworthy

Of any affection

That's why I will never experience

True happiness...

This is a sad one, and unfortunately, it speaks truth for many people living today. Whenever someone feels this way, I like to say that there's a "light at the end of the tunnel" but sometimes, it's just pointless to say that. Oftentimes, happiness can come from embracing negativity ~ that is, making an effort to fix the mistakes/negative aspects of our lives. Sometimes, focusing on the "roses" and "sunlight" in life does nothing. Life is a melody with a spectrum of notes ... sometimes, it's beautiful, and sometimes, it's out of key. We have to learn to go through both ~ the bad and the good.

Thanks for sharing this poem.
