The Lonely Hearts. Poem by Sandra Feldman

The Lonely Hearts.

Rating: 5.0


The lonely hearts
They cry, alone
They've never had
Love, of their own,
Perhaps, a shadowed
Phantom, Love
That never really
Was, enough.

That in between
Dwindled away
Knowing,
Not even what to say
As emptiness,
Opened the doors
To solitude, sadness
And more,
A wasted-up life
A soul oppressed,
Without
Ever,
Any happiness,
And never blessed.

A barren land
Where no rose
Grew,
Just bitter thorns
Of loneliness,
Where only
Sad winds, blew.

Extremely sad poem. My heart wrenches in pain to read about the lonely hearts who have only seen thorns and never roses.
