Setting Mind Apart Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Deepest loneliness ever felt inside is with me now, wishing
it would leave me does no good.

Trying to face it leaves me feeling helpless, no longer able
to even try.

Telltale hints of yesterday's sorrows fill my heart with
tragedies, anticipated on the morrow.

Loving, lasting impressions cannot be marred, they are left
in twilight's stars sitting helplessly as if in jars.

Sadness won't leave, it sets my mind apart, wanting to let
go of all the hurt, instead sitting and living with it.

Wanting it to disappear and leave me alone, sitting frightened,
wondering what went wrong.

Where is all the joyous life of long ago, where is that
happiness that used to show?

No where else can I go, sitting here, feeling sad and lonely
just disappearing.
