Scars

In the darkness of despair, my life unfurled,
Lost and disappointed, in a lonely world.
Love, elusive as a whisper in the breeze,
I yearned for its touch, to put my heart at ease.

But love became a treacherous game,
A bittersweet journey, filled with heartbreak and shame.
In the depths of sorrow, I learned to cope,
With tears as my companions, a soul adrift in hope.

I wandered through the valleys of my own despair,
Through the raging storms, my heart stripped bare.
Each step I took, etched with scars so deep,
A fragile spirit, lost in a lonely sleep.

In the darkest hours, I sought heaven's embrace,
But found only hell, its flames licking my face.
Lost in an abyss, with no solace to find,
I whispered to the void, hoping for a sign.

Through the tears and pain, I embarked on a quest,
To heal my wounded heart, to lay my past to rest.

Though the wounds may linger, scars etched on my skin,
Loneliness still in my heart, a constant companion,
But I found solace in solitude, in my own dominion.

My soul of sorrow howl and weep,
For I've not found my purpose, with nothing to keep.
