Lost Soul Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Lost Soul



Music touching my heart, milking tears of sorrow from with-
in my soul, drops of pain crying out and drowning.

Always wishing for some love - never receiving anything in
return, only emptiness to fill my being.

Heart getting pulled in all directions, trying to settle
down and make some sense of life.

There is none I find, the more I look, there's no one to
care about a lost soul, being empty, life is drowned.

Seeing everything as if under water, life becomes nothing
but a blur of emotion.

Sacrificing life day after day for no reason, there's no
one who cares, no one who loves a miserable wretch.

Being alone, no where to turn, going inside of self and
getting lost in sorrow.

There's nothing left to do, but face life in pain and
sorrow, all my myself.
