It’s so hard when you're misunderstood
No one’s here to help you through the woods (heal the wounds)
You can't cry but now you wish you could
In my eyes
There's a dying light that used to shine
Now I'm down and out; I’ve lost this time
All I want to do is run and hide
I feel so broken inside
Destroyed my passion, been let down by life
I find no reason to strife
I’m fighting this lost battle, but I’m lost inside
Solitude
I’m a broken shadow; residue
When you find untruths in all you knew
When that fire dies inside of you
I feel so broken inside
Destroyed by my passion, let down by my life
I’ve found new reasons to cry,
I’m lost in this battle, no one’s by my side
Solitude
I'm standing in solitude
Solitude

Powerful and plaintive poem. In spite of the extremely sad motif, the ending : "Solitude, I'm standing in solitude, Solitude" has a quiet and self-confident sense of POWER! You're subtle and I totally love that!
This is quite beautifully...
Did you write it as a song or a poem?
Beautifully sad, I meant to say.
@ Nana Yaw,'powerful'- that's the first time my writing has been described as such. Thank you!
@ Selai/Selali( Same person?), I did in fact write this as a song for a musical, but since there's no music to it...plus I think song is simply poetry with a tune to it. Thanks!
