Poetry about life. Isolation and devastation.

Have you ever been in a hopeless situation,

standing on the outside just looking in?

Have you ever been on a journey full of hope,

only to find that the road never ends?

Where the heart of love cries and

the tears fall from your eyes all over again.

Have you ever been in a world so far away,

where the days only seem to never end?

Where the road to home is long and

when you arrive to find that you just don’t belong.

Have you ever been to the alley of isolation and

struck with devestation crying to the wind?

In a sea of drowning waves taking breath away and

it never ends. Have you ever been? Where have you been?

Will it ever end?

    Wow! Now this is poetry with a kick. Will it end? Not as long as people keep fighting. Great free flowing emotions with a kick that will make it surely noticed.
