FOGBOUND
The cold, gray fog surrounds me, wrapped in weather, on I stride.
My heart is sad and lonely, thinking of the tears I've cried.
I offered up my my soul, my life, my gift so freely given,
Betrayed and spurned, I travel on, by desperation driven.
I seek in lonely places and I seek within the crowd.
I search in alleys, open spaces, where I'm not allowed.
I go alone or ask for help, sometimes I find a friend,
But when it all comes down, I'm going solo in the end.
I'll stand alone until someday the sun shines on my face,
Warming me with rays of hope and making my heart race.
The question now is, will the sun betray me from the start,
Burning, searing through my soul and through my very heart?
Perhaps I should stay fogbound, safely cushioned from attack.
Though cold, it is familiar, and I keep on coming back.
I'm weary of the search for light and fearful of the pain.
Hiding deep within the fog, I'm waiting for the rain.

I'm really happy to see some of your poetry! The overall metaphor of using the fog as protection from the possibly burning light is quite interesting and something that I personally can really relate too. Sometimes I like winter here the best, when it is cold and gray and windy and snowy and everyone has to stay inside, out of my life and out of any interaction. The haunting beauty of the bare trees peeking out from the fog and mist is a great symbol of the loneliness and isolation so many of us feel when we are being honest, the light and heat of the sun can be too revealing, too contrary to the coldness felt deep within our souls. Great image, I think it captures the spirit of the poem perfectly, really excellent presentation.
