The Point?

Huddled in the corner of an alleyway

I sit there on the ground,

The cold, barren ground

It matches my soul.

 

It is pitch black

The only light comes from the still, subtle moon

 

I see few people walk by,

I hear the somewhat faint, distant voices,

I sit and wait if I can hear someone calling my name

Wondering where I am.

 

But I hear nothing,

Nothing at all it is dead, complete silence

I hope, wish, pray

That I would hear someone calling my name.

 

Hoping someone would be looking for me

Anyone that cares,

Or even cared about me

Wondering where I could be.

 

But yet just as I expected,

 I hear nothing

No voices, no sounds

Nothing, as if the whole world has disappeared

Left me here to fend for myself

 

I knew that no one cared

If someone did I would hear their voice

Calling my name

Out in the streets looking,

Worrying

 

Still hoping

But nothing

So what’s the point of hoping

Exactly there isn’t a point

So I stop…

Wow this was very deep and sad. This was a very wonderful poem that is filled with such pwoerful emotion, but there is always at least one person looking for you. well done:)

[marcie]

They were looking, just in the wrong place at the wrong time . A well written piece very deep and meaningful.

[Punk rocker]

Great job

[Mauricio Montoya]

This piece is deep, what I get from it, is despair, the point of no return in between the darkness and the light praying to get out seeing there’s no hope, the person dies from whatever it was reaching for, excellent write.
