Lost and alone Poem, by K.pugh, at My poetic side

I don’t know which way to go

I find my self thinking

But still I remain alone

Trying to constipate on how my life will go

I lay here

Lost and alone

Most days I try to figure it out

And some days I find it hard to sleep At night

Reminiscing of the past

I try to figure out where I’m at

Most days I want to be a good dad

And some days I wish I never had

Never had made some of the choices I did

Never spoke the way I spoke

Never looked the way I do

But still I strive to stand strong

And keep walking miles in my shoes

Most days I wish I was dead

So lost and alone

Some days I have no purpose

Lost and confused

But yet I still lay here

Unsure what to do

As I inhale deeply

And exhale softly

I still lay here exhausted

Crying out for help on the inside

It feels like I’m choking

If I stay here

Mentally I’ll be broken

Lost and alone

I think my soul has spoken

But if this is my reality

Yeah it’s meant for me to be permanently broken

Cold and alone

My heart has chosen

So don’t let this be my reality

Cause my path has been chosen

those meditative, truism's
that eek out of us, under moonlight's
incessant gaze
in that tiger hour of introspective, questing
to find
that, best of us
we can excavate, only
from within, us..
a great read, dear poet
stay questing, under humility's guide
stay strong!

You have the ability to overcome those daunting thoughts and emotions. We all struggle in life but always fix your gaze on the light. An amazing and vulnerable poem.

LIfe won't change much unless you give it something of yourself.

Join a class learning anything, it will put you in a diffent thought space. You'll be surprised by the subtle influences it will introduce to you and encourage you. Just so long as you don't have bad habits or lazyness dragging you down.

A well written deep poem. I think life is what you make it, you just have to get out of that hole. And I'm not implying it's easy at all, cuz it's not. But great job on this, thanks for sharing!
