New Disasters

I wrote this when I felt like I was going no where in my life.

Fading away in the darkness again,
Reaching out for another sin.
As the freezing tears keep falling faster,
it's too hard to handle this new disaster.
A broken road on the path to emptiness,
Can't help but feel the suffocating loneliness.
A washed away soul with no feelings at all,
Waiting around for death to call.
Heartless and shattered, I see no way out,
Disbelief has joined up with the constant doubt.
No calming outlet, no peace of mind..
Forever searching with nothing to find.
Stumbling and crawling, no end in sight,
It's hard to keep on.. No winning this fight.

Nicely written! It's not easy to pull off this type of rhyme scheme and have it not sound contrived, but you made it flow fairly seamlessly. You kept it grammatically simple as well, which helps keep it focused on the main theme without distracting the reader. All in all, a solid piece of poetry. Well done!

This is a powerful poem expressing deep inner emotions with vivid visual imagery.

I like the couple of lines "A washed away...." and "Waiting around...." At least these are the one's that made the biggest impact on me.
