Hey guys…

This is the first poem I EVER published. I wrote many, every single one about death or something similar, so no exception here :)

Just one thing: I wrote this in a boring German lesson, I'm native German, so please don't kill me for wrong grammar or something. But critical reviews are always welcome, as long as they're constructive. (Is this word right? I don't trust my dictionary.)

Lost Hope?

I am sitting here alone

Left by the one who loved me

Left forever, oh so alone

Crying myself to sleep every night

People try to comfort me

Say I should get over it

How could I ever forget?

Do they know what I am feeling?

Because my beloved one is dead

Lying in his grave now,

So cold and pale

Lifeless forever

How could I ever feel love again?

Feel the warmth of men's bodies

I will stay here, left forever

All alone in darkened rooms

I cannot stand being so alone

Without someone to love me

I have to leave this place

Try to reach new paths

So now I am sitting in a left forest

Trying so hard not to think

Pain is swelling inside me

It feels as if I would burst

What if I will die now?

I will leave this lonely world

Leave my family alone, just as he did

But do they really need me anymore?

No, no, no, I do not want to be here

Want to die just as he did

So I am lying down here

I will see my love again

So now I am soaring above this world

My spirit spiraling into the light

I can see my lost family below

And see his smile above me

I hear him speaking, "Welcome, my love"

Shining grey eyes look at me

He is smiling as I fly up to him

As I reach and kiss him

Yes, I have found my hope again.
