Loveless

People whom I loved,

I don't wish to love em' anymore, 

Friends who were once my throb, 

I don't wish to talk to em' anymore, 

People who were fond of me, 

I don't wish to smile at them anymore. 

A pride that I once had in me, 

I've no more, 

A zeal for life I once had, 

Is leaving me more and more, 

I'm perplexed bout whom to blame? 

Me, my life, my extensive, Or my soul? 

I'm the same, 

But I'm not the same anymore! 

For those days I feel loved and pampered, Life seemed to bless me more, 

But I no more feel the same, 

But a loveless being, 

Sitting at remorse's door! 

Weird is our world, 

And weird are some souls, 

Loving and being loved, 

Sometimes feels no lesser than a soar. 

The world sometimes feels better 

without your existence, 

And so do you. 

Then why yearn for such affection, 

That's one day gonna be due? 

       Clueless are some days, 

And so are you, 

For numbness rules one inside out, 

And it all seems blue 

You're then left no more 

like a loveless lot, 

For so much happens around 

but nothing really touches you 

Unloved, un-cared, unperceived 

Hopeless, distressed, empty, 

While the world round' 

Busy relishing the it's hues, 

While you're left spent, 

worthless, unquenched 

With all your dues, 

With all your hues.

This poems speaks for those feeling dejected, blue worried sad. One feels let down, sad and dejected sometimes in life and its natural to feel these upset and downs in life as long as we regain our faith in life and people and go on.
As I said, It's totally normal to feel this way i mean everyone (almost everyone) feels this way many times during the life. The thing to remember is that you're not alone in this and thats when your transformation begins!. Thank you.

When we read this poem closely we can say that the poet has poured her true feelings . It is the harsh realities of life people tend to use us, our feelings and then leave us. Nice write up.

This is great and familiar and speaks deeply to those who have known such sadness, loss, loneliness, or other such grief. Beautiful

Your lines speak to me about depression. In a depressed state, you rarely like yourself. As a consequence of this, your relationships with others suffer. You question everything. It is horrible to feel unloved. Remember, it is tge depression doing tge talking, not your heart. Good read my friend.

This is one of the best things I've read by you. It's been in my reading library, but I've been sketchy in 2020 about reviewing, so I'm glad I finally got to this one! I had a million thoughts as I read this & I can't capture a fraction of all your words incite. I have to guess that some of us, when young, seek a high level of excitement to feel loved. Then later on in life, the excitement level isn't there anymore but there's a different way that love manifests, a calmer experience that doesn't require "in your face" give & take, like loving people you never see & rarely reach out to, but the warmth is always there whenever you do. This poem does not actually sound like the downer that it may seem to be. There's an underlying strength that I believe this narrator is accepting this void in feeling at the moment & just wondering what it may lead to, or if anything could be done, but just wait to see, but in a hopeful way. This poem just seems hopeful to me, not bleak, despite the actual words (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
