Abandoned
March 25, 2009
I slept in the rain as twilight came,
I trekked muddy fields in the summer heat, and
I caught cold in the winter, shivering as I withdrew within myself
Abandoned
With each step, my mark is left
A footprint that tells the depth
Of an eternal sorrow
And no trace of happiness
Yet I drag my feet forward
In this black and white world
Where the slightest color is extinguished
Long before it may bloom
I have been torn to pieces
And scattered like a paper in the wind
Released to never come together again
Abandoned

This poem is unique. It has its flaws but it gets the point across of what the author is trying to say
When you get down to the core of it, it's about loneliness and abandonment/the effects it has on one's soul.
