Very Sad Poem (Sad Music) - Lost hope

I was 14 when I wrote this.

Do you have any stories about a time where you felt hopeless? Tell me in the comment box below. Do you still feel hopeless? If not, how was the problem (of being in a state of feeling hopeless) resolved?

A poem I wrote back around three months ago. Comment, share, etc. Tell me what you think. Maybe what could help. The sad violin and piano music is from Final Fantasy I think. Note, I'm 14 years old, so don't expect it to be the best thing you've ever heard. Here's the poem:

I roam the desolate wastelands of earth alone
A forlorn man
Scarred with emptiness
Sorrow drapes over my shoulder
And it droops to the ground
like a weathered rag
Every day, when the sun is weary,
and retreats back to its lair,
I dance a waltz of agony...
listening to melodies of desolation...
The fire in my heart has been dowsed
My soul has been torched
Only rocks and rubble remain of what used to be a refuge of hope
But the walls were bombarded by death itself,
and they gave in.
Joy, once my greatest companion,
has been pulled from my grasp
Now it lies at the bottom of the sea
it strains to reach the surface for just on breath
...but to no avail...
the undertoe of woe pulls it beneath the raging waters below
...and it drifts away in the river of lost hope, never to be found again

This is a poem for those who feel like they have lost all hope. That's what I felt when I wrote this.

@VADERz25 Because its the time in your life when you feel lost. Not knowing what way to turn. Who to look to . Believe me hang in there and it will work its self out in the end . what ever your dealing with or fighting against its making you into the strong person you will be when someone looks to you for the hope your looking for now !

Your poem left me wanting more, more, more. This is how I feel today. I feel your pain. Something or someone has left a void in your heart. Look deep and add to this poem. I feel it is not yet finished. Go on, go on, go on.................
