PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

These days no one seems to have the time anymore to say "hello"

But lately I've been hearing an awful lot of "goodbyes"

My so-called friends pick out my every flaw and then they rapidly go

Leaving me alone to look up at gray, opaque skies



My tears...they fall like rain, but no one sees them splash on the floor

My sole companion is loneliness, for he is the only thing that dwells here anymore

A million mannequins surround my soul, yet they are merely a never-ending sea of faces

No matter how close they are, they're always just out of reach...leaving to untraceable places



I seem to get a busy signal every time I pick up the phone to cry for help and unleash another silent scream

A slender sign of hope shines in the distance, but then I wake up from my deceiving dream

I faked my own death just to see if anyone would actually care

But when I was lowered to my final resting place, not a single soul was even there



...I've been living in fear in a world so cruel; it just makes me want to close my eyes and disappear

Black clouds in the sky forever illuminate Hell and make Heaven awfully unclear...



Lately it's dawned on me that no one is by my side when I wake up to whisper "good morning" in my ear

But the world has given up on me and shouted "goodnight"

A superficial smile is smeared on my face everyday to suffocate the fear

But it always fails to hide that blurry, speculative suicide of a sight



My cries...they drown my dreams, but no one sees me struggling to survive

My shadow is my only true friend, for he's always been there by my unstable side

A society full of disposable droids pollute the streets, yet I somehow still manage to walk these sidewalks of shame alone

I spent my entire life attempting to stand out of the crowd, yet in the end I just merely managed to be another corrupted clone



I seem to be ignored every time I reach out in hope for someone to meet me halfway

A vague glimmer of golden light glistens on the horizon, but it vanishes quickly at the break of day

I feigned my own funeral just to see how many people would really come

I left my casket open to see my friends for one last time, but when I opened my eyes...there was no one



...I've been living a lie in a world so cold...a society so shallow and fake

Gray skies overhead tend to make my omega more lucid and Heaven more opaque...
