The Lost and Forgotten

In a time of rage and fury

Vengful flames consuming, demolishing

Every thought of reason

 

In a time of hate and betrayal

Smothering every ray of sunshine

Within its reach

 

In a time of sadness and pain

Unrelenting torture, agony

Left no part of my soul untouched

 

In a time of sorrow and grief

Only death was left to follow

Always lost and forgotten

 

With tears streaming from my lifeless eyes

With rain dripping softly from my pale, cold body

With only one thought in my mind

 

I look up into the dark gray clouds and flashing lightning

I listen to the storm echoing the agony that is all my own

I think to myself

 

This is my life...

Isn't that the truth? Your descriptions of depression and being powerless are perfect.

This is incredibly intense, and I can comprehend the sorrow behind your words. It's a very emotional and well written poem. Kudos to you

I like it. I think there is more light in you than you think and you bury it in your poems. Don't get me wrong I adore your writing, as well you know, I just think thatif you brought that side of you into your writing you would be even better. :)
