I am alone and I must remain alone
Though my heart aches from holding on
Holding on to the hope that I will one day share love
Share the passions of my soul with another
My soul that is tainted with shallowness
A shallowness which I accept
Though I know that no one else can
If only I could I would wish it to be undone
But the darkness within does it run
Deep here in where no weapons of wisdom are
Breaking through the darkness of my heart
Hollow thought in a shallow river of hate and bigotry
I am not enough for any woman
Not one who I would accept
I cannot look upon an unattractive face, and find love for it
Although I know many attractive faces hide ugliness underneath the width of it
I must find the improbable myth
A beautiful girl that hides the beautiful soul
A beautiful soul willing to accept an ugly shallow troll
I must remain alone willfully I know
I am inadequate to and for all
No woman can love a monster after all
A monster born from two disasters
While one who lives to only gratify himself
The other only sees her life through wealth
A self-absorbed fantasy life as royalty clutched within a religion so hollow
I ask myself if I truly even know them
For what I feel it may only be insinuation
Or my instinct to lie to myself
Perceiving them as such monsters that smut
What death I do know is that which I want in my heart
I am too cowardly to reach for the dark
The embracement of death for myself
I will not make high sorrowful sounds
Nor utter something in a whining song
I deserve all that I get
I am unwilling to change even a little bit
I am like the monsters before me
I am self-absorbed, willfully tasteless, fat lazy selfish liar
I deserve of a life no higher
What awaits may be a scorcher
But I know I deserve the torcher
I am alone and I must remain this way
I have no friends too close to give way my dismay
For I can't take the embarrassment that they would weigh
The embarrassment that would follow with those who truly knew me
So I keep everyone at an arm’s length
I must know no compassion no love no strength
Not from anyone, I do not deserve it
I hold no love for any as I hope my heart runs dry
Only to become stagnant, arid and dry
No one looks up to me nor should they
I am dirt, unnoticed and giving no second thought
I am walked on by all
No other in this world is as self-loathed as I
And if there be such a person then for you I cry
I do this because I feel nothing but hurt inside
I cannot imagine that this could be any worse inside
What it is and has always been
I am alone and my heart hurts with in
I am alone and I must remain this way
I am alone and no one should care anyway
I am alone and no one should live this way.
I am alone and I am alone and I am alone…
… And I will die this way.
You make whoever it is sound
You make whoever it is sound plain pitiful. Great expression. I wouldn't say "you suck at poetry" at all...lol.

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."
"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
