My first poem

This is when I first tried my hand at poetry...

I was standing in the corner

Looking at the road ahead

They seemed to stretch on for miles

I started in a slow tread

I walked on and on

I looked on either side

There were people all around me

From whom I wanted to hide

They all seemed so happy

Though I couldnt see the reason why

I tried to smile and join them

All I felt was a tear in my eye

I went on further ahead

Leaving them all behind

In search of the thing I was missing

Which I so badly wanted to find

At last I reached my stop

Where I most wanted to be

I could see you waiting there

The only thing I was longing to see

You stretched out your hand

You beckoned me near

It was all I ever wanted

There was nothing now to fear

I came closer to you

I saw you dissappear

It was all an illusion

I lost a one very dear

Reality struck me hard

And at a very high cost

And as the darkness engulfed me

I realised what I had lost
