Cold Darkness by ~yoriku:iconyoriku:



Standing there all alone
Left behind, in the alley
Feeling dark and cold
Knowing all there is to know
About being alone,
Loving without being loved
So sitting here in solitude
Sitting down, on the frozen grounds
Now I face my future by myself
With a happy world around me
I live now in sadness,
Tears rolling down my face
As I hide it from the world
Heart torn asunder by those I love
And my last breath stolen
Never given back, I stand here
Before you today, to tell my story
The story of my love that got away
And how you should never be afraid
To love again, and share your heart
For there are always people around
But when it happens again,
My hole grows deeper and wider
Harder than before to escape
And I hide in my shadows
Taking myself away from the world
And now, that I am found, I hide again
Loving myself, and those around me
But not knowing if I can ever love again
So if I open my heart to you,
Hear my prayer, and let me live again
Love me for who I am, and never
Never leave me behind again

some of you might understand this and some of you might not. i dont really feel in the mood to explain this tonight. i hope that you dont mind trying to figure it out for yourself what this is about. just know, that there are always rough times in your life and there are always people who go through the same things as you. dont be afraid to talk about it, or you will fall down deeper into darkness

wow, i love this poem, i know what you mean too. the only thing i might suggest is breaking it up a little. i mean, i have no problem with it, i write like this too, some people seem unable to read poetry that isn't broken. yeah...just a thought. i really love this though, it's very well written.

very nice poem Matt...I don't know if I want to try to understand it though...I have that tendency to take things differently than they are intended...I just know it sure as hell isn't about me...

So utterly.... poetic. It has all the elements. A fair rhythm, and a hell of a lot of emotion expressed. It made me sad reading it, very nice... *snug*
