I’ve got no reason to live.
For the many questions that are asked of me
I’ve got no reason to give.

And so I sit here useless
now I have ceased to exist -
my body a discarded carcasse
lost in a forgotten mist.

Peaceful am I without you
but there is nothing left,
just the traces of certain feelings
that stop my heart from beating inside my breast.

All I have to do now
is to rid myself of the hate,
but I know that from this condition
there is no escape.

No More, No less

I like this poem very much, it was a fantastic write and something I can relate to. It's unfortunate how many could also relate but hopefully now your life has changed for the better. Great write. 5/5

That is extraodinary. I want to copy and paste it into my little notebook so I can read it more often. It's really good, and it sure shows that words never grow old despite the passage of time. They always can say something to the reader. Nice work.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
