About the Poem

It is descriptive of the way I feel every day when I wake up.





Something

And so it came to be
this isolation that I am
I can only look to me
to find the way it all began -
this confusion, constant
hunger for something more than this
I strive to find this being
that I envision, yet seem to miss.
Could it be that I am empty-
or maybe a little lost?
Could it be that I am lonely,
or seek happiness at any cost?
This never-ending Something
that I am living deep inside,
depicts the illusion of myself
and all I have to hide.

Ok, you know your poem is good, when it makes someone cry, your words they struck me, and jammed into my side, I am sitting here baffeled and can't believe your words, cuz everything that you said, just caused a bigger void, I like the things you said in it, because they all were so true, keep up your writing, just make sure what you say is really you
Matthew
Your not alone in the way you feel. This decribes the way I wake up, go to sleep and generally am all the time. Very good writing, keep being honest, it only makes for superb poetry.
