Warm Embrace

By Hate Everyone

I can't escape the loneliness 
which haunts me deep inside
There's no one I can turn to 
and nowhere left to hide

For years I have been tortured by 
these thoughts within my head
My sanity slips far away 
with every tear I shed

Control beyond my hopefulness 
and peace so far from sight
I hate the waking thoughts I have 
and dread the dreams at night

Can Death secure my restlessness 
the grave relieve my fears
Or must I continue hating life 
through my remaining years

Surely Death's a blessed end 
from all the pain I feel
The misery within my heart 
can never be concealed

I've reached the point of no return 
too great is all my pain
I pray for Death to claim my soul 
before I go insane

    So painfully beautiful. You put it so simply, but so powerfully. Thank you for showing me I am not alone.

    I mean... I think it was quite positive, all in all... Given the theme... as in, you've found a way to channel your pain in a creative and well-versed fashion, so you're in touch enough to understand it... In order to elucidate upon this... And I am grateful you have somewhere to do such... you don't quite realise how many lives you touch for the better... You could be that one thing that alters another's mind... A lot of people feel alone... the etymology of which being... All One... I love that there are those of you here that offered a hand or an ear... beautiful... Thankyou, kindly for your poem. Much Love.
