#6- "Alone"
One summer night, not too long ago,
I found myself stranded, walking alone on a sandy beach.
The moon shone down upon me, showing me how alone I really was.
He laughed mockingly at the tears, glistening as they rolled unchecked down my cheeks.
I was all alone.
I fell to the sand in despair.
She cradled my body as sobs racked it, as I shook with pain and sadness.
No one was there to care about me.
No one was there to comfort me.
I was all alone.
The water lapped around me as the tide came in.
I didn't care as he began to enclose me, enfolding me in his watery arms.
It was ironic, this hug.
It only made me feel more cold, more distant, and separate from the world.
I was all alone.
As he flowed I picked up a single grain of sand.
/This is me,/ I thought, /Alone in the world with no one to love me./
I was by myself.
Everybody hated me.
I was all alone.
I had no one to talk to about how I felt.
Even if I had, it would not have mattered,
There's nothing I could have told them
That they would have understood.
I was all alone.
So now I lay here, by myself, isolated.
Reduced to crying and carving peices out of myself.
The blood and tears flow freely now,
Mingling together with a common purpose.
I am all alone.
