In My Room

Lonliness

A desolate feeling, heavy on my chest
An acheing soul, pain in my heart
Numbness of the mind, throbbing head
Stinging eyes threatening salty tears
And a deep sorrow, welling up inside.

Wondering why these feelings are here
Fingers tapping, words appearing onscreen
Alone in my room, no friendly face near
Typing and feeling inside this desolation
Why do I feel like the world is no more?

All gone, to other people and other days
They walk in so many different ways
Leaving me here in a lonely daze
The only thing to do, stand and gaze.


~ I know it needs a title rework and I know only the last stanza rhymes... there is a method to that. It's isn't meant to be a masterpiece, it is an expression of an emotion that was just too big to keep inside. ~

I know what you mean, and, if nothing else, you did an excellent job of expressing that emotion.

Nice poem. Its good to see a poet who can express his/her feelings using the form of poetry. I know the feeling your conveying and i can relate to it. Sometimes we realise we are alone, more alone than we ever really thought or dare to think. Its a nice poem but i do have one or two suggestions:

"Lonliness"

It should be Loneliness .

"A desolate feeling, heavy on my chest
An acheing soul, pain in my heart
Numbness of the mind, throbbing head
Stinging eyes threatening salty tears
And a deep sorrow, welling up inside. "


Remove "And" from the last line in this stanza. It isn't needed and the stanza would flow much better without it.

Apart from that, nice poem.

I never noticed the mispelling thanks... I used the And as a summation, but I can see what you mean.
