Dark Corner Poem by Jennifer Alejandra

Dark Corner

Rating: 5.0


I’m in the corner
In the dark
You cant see me
Falling apart

You cant hear my lonely cries
You cant wipe tears from my eyes

You cant try to comprehend
The problem that i have at hand

You cant read my darkened eyes
Or my heart
All filled with lies

You cant cure the marks on my wrists
Or sneak a peek
At my wish list

You cant see how many times I’ve died
Or even guess
How many tears have fallen from my eyes

You can't know if I'll survive
The jungle
That i live inside

You'll never hear me make a sound
Or even try
To stand my ground

Inside this useless life I live
Might as well
Just close the lid

Into my heart
Into my soul
Into the darkness
So no one knows
How to repair
And even spare
The life i used to love
and care.

Dark corner indeed to be so sad from a unrequited love not worth all that anguish in this life...glad that as the years go by you are given a different picture thru your eyes ...nice to read the feelings so clear...regards

You expressed your pain well here in this sad but well written poem. We may not see your pain, but you made us feel it with you here. Nicely done. PS-'peak'-should be 'peek' ok. Spiritsong
