Misery

I have no thoughts of love, just misery

that fills my soul with every lonely night

spent in my solitude and blinding me

from finding you, and finding true love's light.

I have no happiness inside my soul.
No warmth, no joy dares to reside within.

Inside of me, I'm only dark and cold,

like winter winds gliding amongst my skin.

Oh how I wished that joy could fill my heart

and I could hold you close just one more time,

and gaze into those eyes that tore apart

my heart and soul still wishing you were mine.

Alas, alone, I know my fate is sealed,

never to know how true love really feels.

You spider your way almost into the heart of pain and dent an ache in the foundational setting. Many of your poems seem to center around a mystery person whom you deep down love more than anything else in the world. When and if they ever read them will they realize how much their beauty has broken you? Throughout the repeated plays of movements and non-movements we easily lose sight of faith and gradually dip into the waters of turmoil. Your misery is their awakening but is the expense worth the damnation? Let them go, let them stay, it all causes you a hurt you can't repair. Worry about you, who watches your back better than yourself? If you put a knife in it too what do you have to rely on? It's better to gain yourself, to find yourself, and let them on their own without you being chained, find who they're meant to really be.

"Misery is company cuz I know that it's real. I've learned to love the pain cuz it's the only way that I know how to feel." ~ Boys Like Girls.

Definitely reminded me of the song The Only Way That I Know How To Feel by Boys Like Girls. Great poem.
