Cry For Help

I have found my refuge
in the arms of death
Take away this soul
the life I used to have
To live in darkness
in the middle of nowhere
Standing in adversity
with noone to hold me
This grief I felt
has tortured my brain
Great deal of misfortune
to carry this burden..

hi christina you have the harsh reality of death very well. there is one poetic verse from unknow Urdu poet who writes about a soldier died in the way of defending his land.this is a wish of the soldier " why not i sleep clinging with you ,Oh Grave i have got you after giving up my soul and breath."

My heart is breaking. I can feel the incredible sadness and the deep void felt in these words. A great job, Chrisna!

Nice Write !! I believe that a tortured soul is one that hasn't forgiven itself or hasn't learned to Love itself.. Best wishes :)
