Left Alone

Some days I just want to be alone. 

To be the only one I hear, 

The only one I know. 

But then you appear. 

 

Trying to make me leave my safe haven. 

I fight back. 

But then you yell at me like a nights angry raven, 

And counter my pathetic attacks. 

 

Can't you just let me be? 

I don't want to go where you go. 

Can't you hear my plea? 

I just want to be alone. 

 

Moments later you left me to myself. 

You gave up saying, "Fine by me." 

Turned your back while mumbling, "Don't get caught up in yourself." 

And walked away without another word to me. 

 

The next day came without a word from you. 

I opened my eyes to see you were gone, 

But I knew you'd come back, like you always do. 

So I waited for you to come upon. 

 

When you didn't I lost control. 

Praying for you to return. 

I realized you made me feel whole, 

And your soothing voice is what I yearn. 

 

I looked back at what you've been saying, 

How I need to be with someone. 

And I finally understood the meaning. 

It's so I wouldn't come undone. 

 

But now it's too late. 

I've lost it. 

So lets just leave it to fate, 

And I promise I won't throw a fit. 

 

I'll be left alone while you can say, "I told you so." 

And while I cry in the dark 

You can watch the show 

And prey on me with your harsh remarks. 

 

As I'm in my own dark world 

I don't feel the hand on my shoulder 

Or hear my wall being torn. 

Then I feel your arms wrap around me and I suddenly get warmer. 

 

You say in my ear how confused I am 

With you're body pressed against mine. 

Then whisper sweet nothings of how amazing I am, 

And play with my hair as heat dances along my spine. 

 

I hear a chuckle escape your lips 

While I feel hot tears spill along my cheeks. 

With your hands on my hips 

I try not to speak. 

 

With you holding me close my heart won't stop pounding 

I feel myself heat up as you let out a soft moan. 

You whisper in my ear of things so astounding, 

And last but not least you say, "I'll never leave you alone." 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem is about a girl who just wanted to be left alone and when her friend (a boy) came up to her and tried to be with her she just got mad and argued with him so he left her alone. The girl then realized that she felt better with him by her side and hearing another voice besides hers, but when she waited for him to come back and he didn't she got depressed. She thought he'd never return because of the way she acted but the truth is he was just giving her space and when he did come back he saw how much that upset her and to make up for it he held her close and told her how amazing she is.
