Alone

by Tori Hicks   Feb 27, 2010


Looking at me,
You can't see
The way my heart is breaking.
You can't see
How bad it hurts
To feel the way I do.
Every day,
I'm around people
Who say they care.
But can anyone really care
About someone
Who can't even care for themselves?
I hate this person I've become,
So dark and depressed
And lonely.
For in a room of a million people
I feel so detached,
Unimportant.
All alone,
I live each day
Trying to stay sane.
But what can I tell
Everyone I love
When they ask what's wrong?
'Nothing's wrong,
I'm just tired,'
I say.
It feels like all I do
Is lie
To cover my depression.
I guess this lonely heart
Will just stay

    The questions you asked throughout this poem really made it very enjoyable. I sometimes ask myself the same questions. Nobody likes depression but it's something I'm pretty sure everyone goes through. Keep your head up & keep writing! 5/5 -Cody
