I have seen many authors submitting poems and thought I would like to give it a try. I know my written verse will not live up to same standard as some of the poems I read on Searchwarp but I was eager to give it a shot. I am not sure of the layout for poetry so forgive my ignorance I ask of the expert poets.
It's not good living life alone
A lonely life is hard to endure
Locked in behind a forever closed door.
All cries for help go unheard
Why is loneliness such an ugly word?
Surely words can be erased and gone
But with no rubber to hand - loneliness still lingers on
Four walls hold this hostage against her will
While she lives her life at a standstill
Release me; let me out so I can be free
To venture outside for all to see
I'm real I'm human and not insane
If only you knew how much I pain
I don't want to live life like this, you must understand
Is there someone out there to take my hand
Lead me away from this lonely life
That's caused me nothing but heartache and strife
Near to breaking point looking around this room
Someone take my hand, give me hope and make it real soon
The walls are closing in. I can't breathe, I can't take anymore
"Hey" who are you as I am led through the door
This world I now see as quite demanding but I've handled worse, and care not because outside I am standing
This burden I carried for many years was like toting a hod
Thank you my friend, I didn't catch your name, did you say it was "GOD."
Don’t let your DEPRESSION get to the stage they call chronic
