Cold is my heart and dull are my thoughts, <br />My soul is trapped in memories far gone, <br />Emotions elude me, my feelings are numb, <br />And my spirit cries out for it's freedom. <br /> <br />The dark isolation of my loneliness, <br />The deep despair and cold desperation, <br />All hope has deserted my deep solitude, <br />I am left with my own isolation. <br /> <br />Secluded from happiness I once enjoyed, <br />My sorrow filled state no longer holds joy, <br />My obsolete memories will not bring him back, <br />As I spiral ever deeper into the void. <br /> <br />My destitute subsistence is vaguely aroused, <br />My invalid existence in grief, so profound, <br />Deep feelings of sorrow are all that remain, <br />And the dark silence brings deafening sound. <br /> <br />My confused, disordered retreat from his love, <br />Has left me a prisoner within my own heart, <br />My rueful remorse and melancholy sin, <br />Makes me deeply regret that I lost him. <br /> <br />Woe is me in my deep dark dismay, <br />Depression set in when he went away, <br />I no longer desire to live anymore, <br />Please lower me into my grave.<br /><br />Emily Reid<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/deep-dark-dismay/
