Midnight Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

8: 17 p.m.
Midnight has come upon me, darkness enveloping me in
it's nothingness.

Hope having disappeared with the sunlight, leaving
me abandoned in the middle of an ocean of tears.

Betrayed and feeling totally alone, no one to guide
me through the emptiness and abandonment.

Heart ripped in two, it's beating rhythm echoing
from a hallway of despair.

Walking, stepping off the edge of a life that I no
longer want. 8: 18 p.m. 5/27/15 RoseAnn V. Shawiak
