I Walk Alone

I hate sounding redundant, but if you know anything about me even the slightest bit, this seemed to have come out easily.

 

I walk alone down this lonely road

Only the sound of your angelic voice

Whispering the sweet sounds, you once sung

To help guide me through a lifetime of agony.

 

This void in my heart, charred and diseased

Burning forever in the realm of regret

I was not there for you,

Every day you were there for me.

 

With every sleepless night

Tossing and turning, trying to forget.

Haunting shadows reliving in the moments

It gets harder to live this life without you.

 

Forcing myself to move through it all

As the memories play out like a movie.

Sweet dreams turned to monsters

Constricting me from within nightmares.

 

My heart frozen in the dead of winter,

May the angels hear my desperate cries.

Only heaven above knows you are never far

As all this hope leaves my haunted soul.

 

I walk alone down this lonely road

Icy tears glistening in the moonlight,

Stumbling through the misty black and grey

Where you were once the colors of my world.

It's sad how precious things that were once symbols of joy, can become so painful once they are lost. That is the thing about regret - it always comes when it's too late.
There's lots of loneliness and helplessness in this. Nicely written.

[Rae Elizabeth]

Amazing... I can connect to this poem deeply... Well done (:

[Raven Starhawk]

In my opinion there are many of us who walk alone, talk alone and just shuffle through life feeling empty and out of place. Many times there is no silver lining in the sky that spells relief. This was something I could relate to deeply and completely.

Oh...what a sad regret...I know what it's like to live in a black and white world which once held colour...

I have been down that lonely road .. And though much time has passed, I still feel all those haunting memories .. And the pain that still makes me turn, and look back ..

A good write .. Jasmine

You know the first thing that came in my mind when I read the first line was that Green day song... "Boulevard of broken dreams".... :) But coming back to your poem I think you have done a brilliant job once more in writing this. It is a sad, heart wrenching affair and I know you pour your heart into it... Keep up Anna :)
