Dead Loneliness

by Kota the Unheard   Oct 13, 2014


Lost,
Alone,
Forgotten,
Outcast...

A life where no one even knows you exist,
Where everything you've ever known was a lie.

A life where you question whether or not,
The world you are living in is real,
Or a figment of your imagination,
Where nothing seems familiar,
And you forget where you are,
And you don't know how to get back home.
Destined to walk this lonely world,
Forever,
Lost...

A life where nobody knows you exist,
Where everyone ignores your existence.

A life where all you've ever wanted,
Was someone to care,
Someone to love,
Someone who listens,
Someone you can call,
Yours.

Where everybody forgets about you,
Where you have nothing,
And no one to wipe away the tears.
Cursed to live your life,
Forever,
Alone...

A life where everyone avoids you,
Where you become just another forgotten memory.

A life that has no meaning,
Where you are trapped in darkness,
Swallowed up by your emotions,
Broken apart by your actions,
And killed by your greatest desires.
Finally realizing that you have been,
Forgotten...

A life where no one wants you around,
Where nobody wants anything to do with you,
Pushed away as if you were infected with a deadly disease.

A life where you are put down by those,
Who mean the most to you,
Just for being a little different.
Where you are rejected by life,
Where you become just another,
Unloved,
Outcast...

    This poem is beautiful! Being gay, I know what this loneliness you describe is like, and it's disheartening to be left alone and forgotten. I wasn't going to comment, but the last verse really hit me. The rest of it was great, but the last verse was effective in driving home the notion of loneliness you were trying to evoke.

    The only corrections I'd make would be:

    someone you can call,
    yours.

    I'd get rid of the comma after "call".

    and

    where you become just another,
    unloved,
    Outcast....

    I'd capitalize the "Where".

    Hang in there, man
    5/5
