Kaleigh Dominek Poet I do not know?

Lost

She lives in the depths of despair 
Is she wallowing there?
Looking for which way to turn, 
she sees a sign and doesn’t 
Hide because deep inside, she’s still alive
Walking, slowly, swiftly now 
Will she make it or be found?
Lost in a world with no one to care
Lost in a place she thought she could bear 
Following the road and she thinks of her head
Filled with sorrow and dread
Forgetting the past, dwelling on the future
But for now, she lives in the depths of despair 
Knowing she won’t always stay wallowing there.

Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen April 10, 2009 at 9:37 PM Nice write. I like the way you portrayed despair as wallowing there. And then ended with hope..."knowing ...won't... stay wallowing there. Welcome to Poetry Soup.

Luke Steadman April 10, 2009 at 3:53 PM very well written...i really like the line "forgetting the past, dwelling on the future."...~Luke

Carolyn Devonshire April 10, 2009 at 3:13 PM This is so intriguing, Dominek. I could not help but wonder if she remained "wallowing" in the "depths of despair." You have conveyed her confusion remarkably. Excellent poem! Best Wishes, Carolyn
