Let Cursed Creatures Be

Just annoyed

At times, alone
Even air feels heavy

Not uncommon
Nor unique

A sad cliche

None of us happy
Less fulfilled

Call ourselves "Human"
Cursed as we be

Author's Note

Tried not to dramatize this. Only content with the first two lines. But sometimes the more you mess with it the worse it gets. Don't normally like poems...

Simply enchanting. This poem is just enticing and really easy to digest

[kerikil]

I can feel the emotion you're trying to convey through your words. This is absolutely amazing!

[Brandon S. Whitten]

I agree, not saying it's good. I can see why you don't normally like poems.

[Holly Soques]

This is really good! Concise and not superfluous with the words, it really does bring out maximum impact, adding an almost tangible element to the often overused theme of 'woe be me, look how lonely I am'.

This was really short, but it's good that way. As you said, it's better not to mess with things as delicate as this, they'll just get really messed up. Very well done, good luck in the contest. (:
