All alone

by Emerald   Oct 2, 2005


I'm lying in my room.
Listening to the music.
My tears are flowing.
And I feel so hollow.

I don't know why.
There are no stories to be told.
about losses too great to behold.
There`s just me.

I feel empty.
I don't laugh anymore.
I don't smile anymore.
It`s there alright, but it never goes too deep.

My eyes are blank.
You can see it.
No matter what I do.
I cant hide it from you.

Why don't I burn?
burn of passions, burn of love?
I know the feeling.
It was there before.

It made me sad.
It made me happy.
It made me crazy.
It made me sane.

But now it`s gone.
All that`s left is this shell.
Why cant I find someone.
To make me whole again?

    You will find someone again. I hope you can find something in the meantime to make you smile and laugh...if you truly can't anymore, it sounds like depression. Have hope things will get better and you will find love again. You have plenty of time.

    Good work :)

    This is nothing too out of the ordinary, but I did feel a lot of emotion in this piece. One of the stanzas I thought was particularly original has a couple of mistakes.
    This stanza "I don't know why.
    There is no stories to be told.
    about losses to great to behold.
    There`s just me."
    With the mistakes corrected should be,
    "I don't know why.
    There are no stories to be told.
    about losses too great to behold.
    There`s just me."
    If that is corrected this poem will be great.
    Thanks for sharing.
