#27 Alone Again
Insecurities get the best of some. I'm afraid I'm one. We can waste a lot of time feeling insecure. Trust me, life doesn't have to be so gray.
This poem originally was published in Sad Poems - Depression and Suicide Poems
Alone Again
Four o'clock in the morning Afraid to open my eyes Another day of grief, A day of fear. All alone I feel. I try to justify all the pain, All of this guilt before my eyes. Another day of confusion, A day of wondering. Is it ever just going to go away? All this pain that I feel, And all this anger, is it going to stay? Ten o'clock in the evening, Afraid of the nightmares. Again my breathing stops. All I can do is stare into the night. What is it that causes this feeling? Another night of crying, A night of hiding, Alone once again. My heart feels empty, And I can't cry another tear. Another day wasted on insecurity, A day of wonder. Is this ever going to end? |

TJThis poem related to me in so many ways, when i broke up with my best friend. I was so alone so depressed, so cold each day was another day of hiding the grieve and fear i felt inside and my nights were filled with crying. crying in the dark unable to get to sleep until the early hours of the morning, until i had cried myself out so much my eyes stung. then i would have to get up and get ready for school. breaking up with my bestie was worse than losing someone through death because i had to see her at school. Only my sister who has suffered depression before understood how i felt. My parents thought i was just being a hormonal teenager, but my sister knew it was beyond that, this poem was exactly the way i felt, thank you for an excellent poem
