Notes About The Poem

Lonesome Soul

Off and on, I feel lonesome, can't arise. 
I'm in such pain surfeit, can't drowse. 
Rolling aside sweeps hurl, toss on the side. 
Drop to my knees, leak why I have cried.

Cipher on this planet appeals to me. 
Constantly on the stand for the story. 
A sapped shell is all that is left empty. 
Deserve the sign that dwells is ready. 

 My heart weeps for your insight.
And your unwavering devotion.
I was ecstatic when left late at night.
And refrain from refuting to any notion.

Or a flower will bud in life's greenery.
 Keep your head apart from scenery.
