I Am Alone
I think about
All the days that go by,
Where rainstorms and shirtsleeves
Conceal the tears that I cry.
I think about
All the girls that walk by,
Who whisper and laugh
Leaving me to wonder why?
Does no one feel the same way?
I think
If there is;
They’re pretending that they’re okay.
Perhaps I too should pretend.
Lie.
Say I’m okay.
In hopes that one day
These wounds will somehow mend.
No matter what they say,
I am alone.
When I walk the halls, receiving hateful stares,
I am alone.
When I sit at lunch in the corner of the room,
I am alone.
I stand alone.
I walk alone.
I feel alone.
I think about
What my future has in store.
Will there be change? Improvement?
I wouldn’t dare ask for more.
I think about
What I even did wrong.
Do I deserve this pain and isolation?
I don’t remember it’s been so long.
All I can remember is
Being Alone.
Standing Alone.
Walking Alone.
Feeling Alone.
