Old with a yong man's hands. (unmoved)

I am alone.
I am broken hearted.
I am afraid to grow old.
Hollow water couples my reflection; I drink from a basin of stone;
I wash the stress from my eyes, and I see.
All of my life I am an empty carcass.
All of my life I am void form and scarlet.
The words no longer mean anything to me.
I am tired, in pain, bored.
I grow hesitant of memory, and cold.
I am unable to smile genuine smiles.
I am unmoved.
I see the world a bitter melody.
I see a rusty sadness in everything around me.
I know my dreams to be nothing more than dreams.
I have grown old with a young man’s hands.
There is nothing in the world that I would like more than to know the sound of laughter bellowing from my own throat.
I am a sufferer, suffering no conviction.
I am full of broken dreams, scattered by the effluences of rain.
I have known a tired beauty, and it has crumbled under the surmounting glowers of time.
I have loved a lonely love, and it is a memory.
There is nothing left in this dirt and dust of my life.
I desire nothing more than the propensity to desire.
What more can I say, but to say that I am alone?

| I have been alone for ten years. The poem is dead on. If you continue to find nothing to hope for. Then look into Norse mythology at Odins fight against Fenris at Ragnarok. If you live in hell then you may as well live to raise hell. |
