Poem of the Week

UNWANTED

Sondra Dark

I am unwanted, by love
I am unneeded by life
My heart is torn in a ceremony of doubt
My beliefs are trampled in a ceremony of remembrance

Love unwanted, Love rejected
Shivering in the cold, alone
Crying in the morning, alone
Alone, as I shall always be

Love abandoned my world
Life no longer seems to matter
Shadows in the night cause my mind to race
Death in the heart makes me the one you abandoned

Unwanted appeared in Confessions of the Damned in 1999.
