Another worthless poem
Another empty day
How I tire of thinking
And hearing what they say
I am beaten and worn
Everything seems to now make me cry
I know it is a cliche
But I am so lonely I could die
Grand plans come to naught
The simplest things are beyond my reach
Trapped in this ruined form
How I wish I could cease
I am weary of sleep
Though I hate being awake
No matter what I turn to
The emptiness remains
Is this how you felt at your end
My dearest sister?
Since you left this world
My life has seemed but a whisper
A whisper of lost futures
Echoing possible pasts
The moments we shared torment me
A reminder that nothing lasts

Another lovely poem... far from worthless... as Frost said, the woods are lovely, dark and deep. So is your little poem. We all feel something like the way you do in this poem sometimes. I for one feel blessed that you shared your deepest thoughts in this candid, deceptively simple lyric. There is nothing like a poem to bring out such emotions and ponderings.
Never worthless, some poems talk to others, some to ourselves. I wish you a path to a happier future…and by the way, this was a well crafted and emotional poem, well done…
I'm so sorry to hear this, but know that everything will be alright. I lost my mother at 13, so I know what loss feel like. It's unbearable, but keep in mind that there's always light, even when you can't see it. Your poems are your legacy.
This is a great poem. I enjoyed every word. Thank you for sharing. You captured my heart with this one.
Good poem . I’m sorry for your sadness and the loss of your sister
You shared your feelings with the world through beautiful words---that is one of the most worthwhile, noble things you can do.
We are all blessed you shared such intense emotion here.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
