Alone...
Always alone.
No one knows me.
I'm constantly on my own.

Alone.
No one to share my thoughts with.
No one to understand.
Can't let anyone in.
Can't put anything out.
I unable to handle the emotional demand.

Alone.
Sadness always shoulders me.
Alone.
Is this how I'm supposed to be?
Alone.
Forced to deal with the dark corners of my mind?
Alone.
By myself for all time?

Completely.
Entirely.
Undeniably.
Alone...

"I know why the caged bird sings." I feel your emotion cascading throughout this entire piece. The repetivieness is a lovely touch to the poem. And good use of rhetorical questions.
