When the sun is sinking low below the horizons
My heart is gripped with fear
A feeling of loneliness creeps over me
I see the world deserting me
As I stand alone before the sunset
No hand leads me to the world of light
No voice speaks endearingly to my burning soul
All I feel is a serpentine fear
Slowly creep over me
All I hear is the weakened throb of a lonely dying heart
My hopes, my efforts dash with ruddy drops
On the ground at my feet
All I see around me are the fragments
Of broken dreams, unfulfilled desires
And with them I have to go on again
Into the dark, cold world
Where love or peace I have not found
The very thought of being alone
Fills me with dread …
I don’t want loneliness for a companion again
I have had enough and I am breaking up
… And as the last rays of the sun
Hide behind the crimson veil
An echoing cry escapes my lips
I only seem to say …
“Take me, Oh, take me with you
Leave me not alone again! ”
Take refuge in Nature and God, the Almighty! You will never feel alone! This thought is reflected in my poem 'NEVER ALONE' in the PH!

I would like to translate this poem
Love the feel of this poem...almost like standing before the gates to the underworld, which is appropriate for loneliness, one of the worst feelings in the world...nice write...Coach
