Loneliness April 26 2010

A scrambled mind, with so much,
I am at a loss for words.
Confused to a point I can't find my way back,
and my voice will never be heard.

The silence ringing in my ears,
is driving me insane.
All bottled up inside myself,
bowing my head in shame.

The constant movement in my head,
I am spinning out of control.
Reaching out for a little peace,
for something to ease the soul.

Tossed aside so carelessly,
I am damaged beyond repair.
Searching far and wide,
for someone to show they care.

Hanging on by a single thread,
my body fills with fear.
Wandering around and screaming inside,
but only I can hear.

The loneliness takes over me,
I don't know how much more I can take.
Holding on to all that I can,
I am certainly ready to break.

you wrote this on my birthday. and as to guessing my intentions; here the last few months all of my poetry has been about real experiences. from being in love all the way to the tragic death of the one i loved. most of my poems now are about my mourning because as recently as sept 16 this year she passed away. so if i should seem intence, thats because it is. john
