This is a poem I wrote when my two best friends were seriously ill. I sent it into a poetry contest and it was published.
Abandoned
Alone in my darkness, voices are calling me
Trying to help me, trying to save me
But only succeeding in pushing me farther under
It's too late for their help, for I am too far gone
The grief has enveloped me, the pain has consumed me
There is nothing left to save, my mind is gone
All that is left is an empty shell, a specter, a ghost
Because I was abandoned by those I trusted
Hurt by those I loved and cared for
Lead astray and left to bleed until there was nothing left
They thought I was strong, the unsinkable Titanic
Little did they know the iceberg was within me
Little did they know I would crumble from inside
Now I am alone surrounded by shadows
Invisible demons feast on my soul
While I am left to watch, blind and helpless
Pushed under the waves of despair by those I knew
Chained by shackles made of nightmares
Each link was sealed with their pain and regrets
Now I am beyond lost, beyond repair, beyond hope
Sinking further into the void
Abandoned and alone, waiting for the end;
The doom that is yet to come
I canot remember when i wrote this one it was a late night inspiration of mine.
Falling
Falling in the darkness
Angel spread your wings
Falling into nothing
Spirits sadly sing
Falling down slowly
Pain the soul must bare
Falling now faster
Do the voices care
Falling each day further
Hear the voiceless song
Falling for eternity
Wishing time weren't gone
Falling but it's too late
The choice long ago was made
Fallen now and touched the ground
Let the memories begin to fade
I have tons more, more than one full floppy disk full of poetry and monologues but alas i did not bring my disk up from the cottage because i am only in the city for the weekend and didnt bring the orriginals up either. My appologies too if my poetry seems sad. I write from inspiration and emotion, sometimes its happy, sometimes its funny and sometimes its sad. These two were just ones i was able to find on the hard drive that i had accidently saved on to it before saving to disk.
