Letting the clock tick my life away,
Watching my short lived days pass by,
Wondering, why am I living? I want to die!
Everything around me is so empty,
Existence, why does it have to be so gloomy?
Confusion, illusion, my daily bread,
Wanting to live a life without regret,
I long to find a place, where I truly belong,
Where everything is perfect, nothing there is wrong,
Dreaming all day long, why can’t I be strong?
And face life and all the things it brings along

Ohh, I've felt pretty down like that. I'm usually a very happy person, but I like to keep my feelings to myself, so they just kind of grow. That's where writing is a great help. I can just let it all go..... no worries...... But I know exactly what you mean. And when I sometimes look back on those times that I felt that way, I wonder why? Things usually aren't as bad as they seem (atleast for me..... don't know about you.....) But seriously though, things aren't as bad as they might seem......
Just the thoughts in my head at the moment =)
A well written poem too ; )
God bless,
Ellen |

Yes! You captured the feeling perfectly. I can relate to the frustration in your words. Very good poem, I especially liked the sing-song feel of the last stanza.
Truly,

I have felt like you do at odd periods in my life
in between obsessions. Motor cycling, sailing, golf, hang gliding, model railways, model aeroplanes, poetry, model yacht racing.........
Look around you something is bound to turn up that interests you, that brings you into contact with other people.......
Something is better than nothing

| Wow. Anne. So bleak. So gloomy. It's like being caught in a freezing storm. You are too a good poet hon. Don't ever forget that. This was good and I hope you find your smiles again soon if they are gone. |

Excellent write Anne - I chide myself often for wasting time, when in reality time is the only thing of value we have or will ever have. However it seems a part of human nature to 'waste it'. I tend to think we humans thrive on misery, it forces us to kick and scratch our way out of the dark and gloomy existence - to search for the light. - as in your poem, you are looking for something to dispel the gloom. Ah and as if by magic the sun has just broken through the gray skies here and is pouring in my window like hot butterscotch - a message from the gods to go out and get some fresh air.

there's no denying life is hard...you just gotta have a little faith...i could relate to your heart felt pain and the beautiful and deep words you used to describe that state...it's easy to ask, "Is this all there is"? INSTEAD, I have to ask myself "How can I best enjoy this moment? It's usually by getting on here and writing. I loved this poem for its openness and sincerity...good job!
