do you like my poem?

Question

I feel very depressed right now.
i keep telling myself i think i would be better off alone.
but in the back of my mind i can just see that perfect person holding my hand
telling me that they love me.
and then i snap back to reality and i realize that would never happen.
why cant i find my soul mate?
it it that hard?
or should i give up and say f*ck the realtionship sh*t.
and be alone forever.
im not sure.
but what i do know.
if im by myself the i have no one to disappoint me.
or lie to me
or cheat on me
or make me feel even more depressed
no one to argue with.
all i have is myself to depend on.
is it so bad to be alone?

Answer 1

I can't really say I like your poem. And I only say this because of the pain behind it. It would feel akward for me to say oh I loved it!....when there is so much emotional distress behind it. It's heart felt and deeply expressed. I'll leave that as an oppinion.

In response to the bottom line of your poem. Sometimes yes...solitude is a great mercy from the chaos of the world outside your walls. But a lot of times to feel the warmth of someones hand touch you out of love or comfort can be the most merciful feeling of all. A kindred heart beating like yours, beating for you. It's beautiful.

I don't know the cause of your lonliness or the personal effects of it. I only know that there is love....companionship and understanding for everyone. Don't lose hope. It can be your single most powerful driving force.

Well, I don't really care for it, but so what?

NEVER MIND the people who think there shouldn't be profanity in a poem! Geez, it's like they've never heard of Ginsberg or something ...
