The Cry Of The Lonely Poem by Myrtle Glo Oliquino

Come snatch me away I plead
I cry from the pit of emptiness;
On phantom wounds I so bleed
Hear, I’d trade my soul for happiness.

Alone, my void spirit wails,
Reaching out to abandoned presence
All torturous effort fails
With no one this life has no essence.

Hush… my hollowness echoes
Be still, I beg for your company
Frozen within, no one knows,
Please fire up my heart; be nigh me.

Endless pain is my sole friend
Hugging me tight yet choking me hard
I pray thee my sorrow end
Love me true and fill my empty heart.
