Alone Poem by Victoria Hudson

I sit alone as nightfall comes
My heart just melted wax.
I can think only one thought
And that's that everyone laughs.

Everyone has fun.
They having friends.
And when the day is done,
They look for tomorrow to begin.

They smile.
They share.
They walk miles
For those that care.

But I sit alone.
In my room.
Building my wall of stone
And not allowing much room.

I cry
I eat.
I try.
I repeat.

They all left me behind.
Gone to do something else.
I don't even cross their mind,
As their hearts ring the joyous bell.

Alone I sit.
Surrounded by my own thoughts.
I think of the friendships I miss.
And of the friends I lost.

So many at once.
Completely gone.
Moving on is a must.
But just how do I move on?

At times I want to end this life.
Disappear from the Earth.
It was always full of strife.
So what would it hurt?

But then I think.
Everything happens for a reason.
And so I just sleep,
Awaiting my next occasion.

Waiting to be happy again.
Waiting to see the light.
Waiting for just one friend
Who doesn't see my pain with delight.

I sit here alone.
And I will continue to do so.
Until someone comes along to climb my wall of stone.
But that, I guess I'll never know.
