here I am, walking in a somber place, all I see is a sad and lonely face
always seeking for happiness, but what I found is sadness
hope is almost as slim as none, entire darkness is covering the sun
I can't seem to see the light, I can't quite figure out my life

with tears brimming under my eyes and the blissfulness is out of sight
I fell in a dark, deep and dirty pit, the rock-bottom is what I hit
as I was consumed by solitude and hopelessness becomes my food
emptiness is my new daily companion until numbness is about to set on

I curled up myself in a fetal position, masking such repugnant emotion
telling myself a constant lie, even if deep down I wanted to die
I know this feeling is temporary but seemed like I'm in misery
I can't help ask myself, does someone care enough to help?
?

Thank you @terrycraft for bringing the inner poetic in me.

Well done! Some really strong emotions, keep it up!

Thank you! It's really a strong but sad one.

Hello @jeizwannahavfun (funny username tho😆😄), your poetry is as poetic as poema can be. Your conspicuous couplet pattern is beautiful and your end rhymes rhymed. Your poem is deep and emotional and there's this humanity to it that evey reader can relate to.
