Poem: Sorrow
I sit upon my bed at night
and yet I cannot sleep
all I do is sit and think
and weep and weep and weep
I weep for those who know me
and hate me to the core
I weep for those who've heard of me
and the things that I adore
No matter where I go or tread
it's always been the same
people always run or hide
or improve their hateful aim
Those who know me
all say the same mean, and hurtful thing
our lives would've been way better
if we'd never heard of him
Yet those who like me, for who I am
look past my diseased part
they figure their lives surely couldn't
see a better start
Yet as they drag me along
all I can ask is why?
No benefit will come of me
so why do you even try?
They drag me on and on and on
but I only slow them down
be free of me, forevermore
just leave me here to drown
Happiness eluded me,
in order for it to come
I escaped to virtual worlds and times
too hard to overcome
yet all throughout, I managed to see
one spot of hope and light
this happiness was brief but bright
and rid me of this blight
To the girl I love, where are you now?
I found in an endless sea
of people wrought with pain and doubt
please hear my sorrow plea
To be with you is all I ask
to be within your arms
to find happiness, in this world of death
to be far out of harms
Please return my feelings please
I know you know it's true
look to your heart, and I know you will
believe it is true too
Do what you may, do what you might
I am near the end
no more can I lose from this world
nothing more that I can mend
I love you is the hardest words
one can ever say
hopefully this poem speaks them
in a way I could never say
