Solitude.
That which I never favored
Until I gave my heart away,
Only to be broken.
I feared it, feared that it would consume me,
Would change me.
But truth be told, I’ve already changed.
I gave up hoping that I’d find someone
To love me as I so freely gave my heart away to love.
I gave up dreaming that I would find a way
To make my dreams come true.
I gave up believing that my living meant anything
More to anyone than the mere fact that I was indeed alive.
I even doubted they saw as much as my being alive
Because it felt as though they could not see me
And would pass right by without a glance in my direction.
I felt as though I could place myself dead center in front of someone,
And they would walk around me as if I were but an obstacle in their way.
I lost faith that someone would finally stop to say hello
Or in the very least, look me in the eye.
I end now not even caring whether someone sees such end,
Nor wondering if it in some way might affect them.

9...I write poetry too. People who don't write don't seem to understand how a poem is like a piece of the writer's soul. Thanks for sharing a piece of yourself with us at Yahoo Answers. We never know how experiences in life can often mirror someone else's and let that person know that they are not alone. You are not alone. Most people have felt looked over and unimportant at some point. You have no idea how many lives you may have touched. Keep writing. It soothes the soul.

ok- I like your poem, I my self have written several and have often wondered the same...( what would people rate it??)
so, now let me dissect yours as I read it...
it starts out w/ solitude,(never favored)
it speaks of a broken heart,
(which cast the writer into the unfavored solitude)
then it speaks of feeling the ghost like effect of being broken hearted, thrust into this solitude where, no- the world doesn't stop, and no one notices the depth of pain you are in, or if anyone will be effected by your pain.. as if being heart broken makes people avoid you. people do avoid pain, maybe even pained people...I just wanted to say- I have been there, in the depths where you dwell.
I have been effected, by your words, yes...to know that we are not alone, in these feelings of being alone.
so I stop to say "hello"
and give you a 10++++++++++++++++++++++

Because, it's 1-10, I give 10, if it were 1-1,000,000, I'd give it a 1,000,000.
