Hopeless

Have you ever felt hopeless?

That feeling that throws everything out of focus

That feeling that traps you into stress

That feeling that created a mess

Have you ever felt hopeless?

 

Have you ever felt terribly empty?

That it leaves you unhungry

That it leaves you lazy

That it leaves you sickly

Have you ever felt terribly empty?

 

Have you ever felt so alone?

Which paralyzes you from touching you cell phone

Which makes you feel ungrown

Whichcauses you to feel like a little child… unowned

Have you ever felt so alone?

 

Have you ever cried during the night?

Feeling as if nothing will be alright

Feeling as if you have lost your will to fight

Feeling as if you have no more might

Have you ever cried during the night?

 

Do you feel like crying now, cause I do.

I do not have anyone to turn to

My nasty emotions are the flu

And these symptoms are forever attached to me… glued

Do you feel like crying now, cause I do.

 

Have you, dear friend, ever felt this hopeless?

Wow! Beautiful poem! I'm surprised no one has commented on this yet. I like the repetition and the rhyme scheme. It draws me into the poem and makes me feel every "hopless" emotion that the speaker states. Please don't stop writing my friend!
