Solitude

Haven't written in a long time. I felt like I needed a break for life and I needed to write, so I wrote this semi poem, hope you like it :)

Feelings of need are never quenched,

Feelings of loneliness have no cure,

Friends you lost you never get back,

For the millionth time I feel insecure.

I feel abandoned, but I feel no pain.

I am numb.

There's no life in the world anymore,

No color in my cheeks,

No laughter in the air,  

Just dead leaves falling as winter surrounds me, death.

I feel so cold.

When can I get out of here?

When can I feel safe again?

Can someone come save me?

Can someone set me free?

Ana, I can relate with this sometimes.
Maybe thats what makes the good times that much better, because we have the bad ones to compare them to.

Very nice, glad I got to read you.

at some point of time we all feel alone.. this is the way life is... Your poem is sad but really good for it really touched my heart...

[Coyote Poetry]

Disappointment and a broken heart is felt in your words. A sad and powerful poem. We feel alone and afraid. Life is a pain in the butt sometime. We must find our dream, goal or pleasure. A excellent poem.

It's a lovely poem. Sad and simple, but that's what I like about it.
The last line calls for someone to save you -- like a Prince Charming of some sort. I think that's what a lot of people who identify with this poem are waiting for.

On a side note, I completely forgot you had an account here. It's good that you're still writing; even if you're rusty, you shouldn't give up your talent. I hope you reply soon!

PS: Guess who?

Oh... no problem with that; every writer simply has his/her dull moments. At least you finally had a new one.
So keep it up!. ^^

Thank you for your nice comments :) I haven't written in a long time so I'm a little bit rusty :(

[K.B. Soriano]

The emotions are definitely there. Powerful in the sense that you have effectively conveyed yourself. :)
Though a bit skeptical for the line 'I am numb', sort of crosses out all the other feelings you have established. Or is it just me? :)
But the piece, summing it all up, is quite nice. :)

I like it... full of pure and straight forward raw emotions... to me that is what poetry is about, expressing thoughts or feelings and you did it really well. I am sure so many can relate to this and wouldn't feel so alone.... wonderful job.
