I FACE THE DAY

 

 Some of my poems never make it into print - still, I like this one. 


I FACE THE DAY

 

Alone, I face the day

Hollow and loveless

Uncaring and unaware

The new day only brings more

Loneliness and despair

How I hunger for what was

Joy and laughter

Lust and love

Fleeting

So quickly gone

Leaving the husk

Of a life.

  1. I like this one, too! When October rolls around each year, I miss what I've lost, so this one hits me today.
