The door shuts leaving me in almost total silence. The only noise I hear is the hum of the computer and the sound of my own uneven breathing.
Again she leaves and I have no one...
memories of times when I was surrounded by loved ones fade into the fog covered, dimly lit streets of my mind
as the sun goes down and the thunder clouds roll in, I am no longer able to hold back my tears. Drops fall from my eyes and from the sky, each a symbol of this melancholy day.
No one really cares that everyone I loved has left and I am alone with only the heart beat from my own chest. But I fear that even that will betray me, and I will drink one last deep breath before the empty darkness consumes my soul and I am left yet again to wander... Alone


The author's comments:
I wrote this poem because lately I have been going through a lot of losses. My mom always seems to be going out drinking with her friends leaving me alone each weekend, and my dad lives across the country so I don't really have anyone to go to.
