In The Abyss

Muse of Calliope

I am sad, alone, and lost. 

 

I should have known, 

Should have counted the cost; 

 

I am sad, alone, and lost. 

 

Again, again; again I am tossed  

Until, until, my eyes they are glossed 

And in the abyss, all covered in frost 

 

I am sad, alone, and lost.

    A poem of extreme isolation and alienation. Feelings of being lost and without meaning. Very well expressed.

      Thank you arqios! What a peculiar time the lockdown was.

        Indeed it was. In a way it helped clarify poetry in my life. It’s one of the first of the arts to get cast away but Covid had something else coming. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š
