Lost

The title says it all

I have lost my sense of belonging
My pride is on the fall.
I'm weary from this race I'm running;
to which I see no end at all.

Forsaken by love, abused by trust
Mistaken to be true, but was only Lust.
heartbroken and lonely, warn nights now cold
The warmth has risen, gone is that stronghold.

Memories of the past haunt every thought and dream
My mind is now a-wander, in days so cruel and mean.
Tears only fall in the gloom of the night,
replaced by a smile at the peak of light.

But deep inside the heart and mind
The trace of a smile nowhere you find.
For in the day it taunts my head
And lies with me as I go to bed.

"Forsaken by love, abused by trust
Mistaken to be true, but was only Lust."
Some dances leave us wanting more. Bad love and dangerous love is sometimes than being alone. Thank you for the amazing poetry. So many strong lines in the poem.

Nice poem, sad as many poems are, but with a hint of hope at the end, which made me think that maybe she isn't completely lost.
