Sami Helbaoui Poet Free verse

My World

The sky is dark, the sun is black stone
The ground is burned, the world is raining with sadness
The moon is black, the flowers are dead
The green is brown, the blue is red
The joy is misery, the love is hate
The living are dead, the pure are lost
My dreams are gone, my hopes are hopeless
My life is nothing, my life is empty
My life is this…
And this is what I live in

Robert Pettit February 20, 2011 at 8:53 AM Tomorrow is another day. Perhaps things will get better. You described a day all humans would like to forget.

Constance La France February 18, 2011 at 5:47 AM You have written a sad poem full of beautiful words, so something in you is very alive and amazing and not so empty I think~~

Andrea Dietrich February 17, 2011 at 7:07 AM Vividly sad, Sami. Gosh, I hope you don't really feel this way! There is still alot of beauty in the world, but I know what you have described is what depressed people feel. It also sounds like a description of the world after the Apocolypse! Thanks for reading my poetry. LUv, Andrea
