Hello there! A newbie here in Writers Corner given the fact that I don't write often. This one's something I penned down long ago. The thought to publish this though occurred just a while ago. Before you go ahead and read, I repeat, I do not have the calibre of a writer.


I am breaking a thousand pieces inside.


Hard to face my plight,
Wish I could take a flight,
A lost and devastated soul,
Hopes to get whole;
Which way to go, is the toughest to decide,
I am breaking a thousand pieces inside.


Trepidation, wrath, misery and guilt are getting better of me,
A way to redeem myself,
I do not see;
To be quite or to quit?
An exhausted candle awaits to be lit,
Cannot keep the truth aside,
I am breaking a thousand pieces inside.


What to do when you have lost the zeal?
Fact is, some wounds never heal,
It gets too much to bear, the pain,
All my endeavours go in vain;
The best of me seems to have died,
I am breaking a thousand pieces inside.


I feel weak, dumb and lame,
One of those kind you cannot tame,
What I have made of myself is getting strenuous to hide,
I am breaking a thousand pieces inside.

Being an admirer of poetry, particularly the one that's dark, I think this is one brilliant and sad poem and, believe me, you've done a good job enunciating the ugly sentiments. I can actually feel the misery and it's not solely because I can relate to it. Although I'm not empathetic, I think this time it's your writing that makes me commiserate with the writer on her affliction. You say you do not have the potential of being a writer and I beg to differ. Even though I have not read anything else written by you, I think you surely can gain writing expertise if you write more often. Believe me, this isn't for invigoration purpose. No sugar-coating as well. Pure truth.

Succinct lines that verbalize pain. A vivid description of melancholia or perhaps depression. This poem has an unique beauty of it's own. Well done.

I hate Reserving things, but I would've forgotten to comment otherwise πŸ€“
So let me start with this: I love poems, and I really like people who write poems. I've read the other poem you've written, and though your themes are a little on the melancholy side, I still really like them. 


A way to redeem myself,
I do not see;

An exhausted candle awaits to be lit,

The best of me seems to have died,
I am breaking a thousand pieces inside.

^I love those lines. They're beautifully put across.

Such mornings are partly why I am such a dark human being.

she is broken.. she is devestated..

1000 pieces ... u are broken into..

it just takes a small move to glue it..

all the thousand peices glued again..it will give a spider web.. whihc is abstract.. a modern picassa..

depends on how i take it..

lovely ..
