She Walks Alone

She is a prisoner of herself.
Her dreams, she dreams are
Not her own. The tears she
Cries are scarlet in color. She
Is not a master of her domain.
No one to talk with, she feels
As though her gullibility has
Been betrayed.

She walks alone upon this earth.
It seems to be so lonely for her.
Clouds float wickedly above her.
The clouds are ready to burst into
Flames. The fiery furnace scorches
All her irony.

How can she carry on? The loneliness
Rules her beacon.Solitude envelopes
This frame she calls life. She knows
She is getting ready for death. Her tomb
Has been built. She will walk in solitude
Forever.

She walks alone! She walks alone!

Nice to see that pixie with attitude. I always meant to ask you, and forgive me if I've asked and forgotten, is that your drawing?

I am learning how to draw better than I have
been. This one of my pictures I drew. I thought
I would draw something for my picture on
neopoet. Thank you asking.
Friends,

I found it in a magazine and I thought it would go well with
my name. So I thought I would draw it for this site. It does
have a little creep in it. My poems I write are from all of my
muses I live with. I hope I am keeping up my poems
to its reputation. I know it has been about a year but
I thought i would get back into the game again. I am
having a hard time posting my poems due to the way
the new site is set up. If you have any helping words
for me, please feel free to help me. i will be more
than thankful for your advise and help. Thank
you for your comment.

Friends,

I have had many poems running in my head for a year.
I thought I would return and write some poetry for
neopoet. I tried to come back in Oct. but it was down.
Now I am trying to make a come back. I appreciate
you taking time to critique my poems. It is an honor
to come from someone that writes like you do.
Thank you again.

Dear Pixee,

really enjoyed this write and the imagery is vivid. Full of emotion, solitude, loneliness and sorrow.

I wasn't keen on the word 'gullibility'...I wonder if 'vulnerability' would work?

I liked the 'outro'.

You could turn this into a song lyric using the "she walks alone, she walks alone as part of a repeating chorus.

Totally loved the poem my friend,

HS

With all that I am and all that I could be, I walk this earth, yet nobody sees me.

I appreciate your comments. It makes me feel like I
still have the touch. I have been absent for over a year.
I decided to return and get to know all of the new poets.
I am glad that you enjoyed my poem. I put my soul in
all that I write. It comes from the abyss of my soul.
I mean what I say and I say what I mean.
I love your name and your picture, that is so
wicked, I do like!! Thank you again for taking
time to comment on my poem.
Friends,
