Just Wait

Just Wait

I wish I could run away for a little while,
Don't want anyone to see my broken smile.

Walking on the path of darkness, this is not a home, Walking on the path of darkness, all alone.

He loves me, he loves me not, de-petal me from the stem, You don't see my tears fall, you cause them.

Shivering, shaking, trembling, I'm so cold,
Won't you calm me down with your strong hold?

I see life as useless, what's the point,
Every ounce of my body hurts, every joint.

The pain I feel inside cannot compare,
To the sorrow I feel within, the misery, despair.

Isolated, abandoned, as if no one cared,
Never to be heard, no one to have a life to share.

Am I even human anymore, I cannot feel,
Feeling no remorse when I hurt or steal,

These wounds are incapable of being sealed,
These wounds will never cease to hurt, it will never heal, This pain I feel is not an illusion, its real.

I've been let down so many times, there's no hope,
Its hard to try to move forward, or to cope,
Makes you want to end your life with the rope.

So as I end this dreadful poem, so full of rage and hate, I start my life anew, with a clean slate,
Until I await my deadly fate,
Of never finding my one true mate,
But its not too late,
To sit around in my misery and just wait.
