My Loneliness by HarryT
Lonely Poem writing prompt entry

 
So lonely, no energy even to sound an alarm
I live in dark shadows, shunning anyone’s pity
Others are happy, but such never my prize
When awakening, the sun may shine
Never-the-less every day is gray-bleak
 
Passions of life have drained from my soul
Here in my doldrums, I wallow alone
Save for a tiny voice echoing from within
Saying it’s up to me to defeat the fearsome
Specter gradually strangling my essence
 
Act I must! Before it’s too late, seek support
Battle, the horrible illness of my lonely heart
 


Writing Prompt
Write a free verse poem to express the state of loneliness in not more than 15 lines.
