Worn

Here is a poem and original artwork that represents the fragility of emotion. It becomes so easy to feel like noone else shares these feelings with you but many are going through the same things, and while you may feel this way for a while, it will not last. And while one of the thoughs that comes to my mind all too often is about the world being evil or "out to get me", I still come to believe that the world is more good than bad.

"Worn"

My gentle nature has been worn thin
My weary mind shuts out the thoughts
Of all the hate a world can hold.

Since the beginning of the earth
I am not the only one to feel so cold.

Every fragile heart and every mind
Every eye open to the dark
Hoping to find compassion
Searching for hope.

Begging the world for kindness
Asking the world for hope
Wishing to find peace
And Love
And Light
And the whisper from my soul
Echoes through the night
"Please Don't Hurt Me"
