We're All Just A Little Bit Lonely

"Are you lonely?" He turned her to ask.
"Aren't we all?" She softly replied.
"Perhaps it's true," He simply returned.
"We all are just a little bit lonely."

"Maybe if we blink," He started to think,
"The world will rush by and forget us."
She crossed her legs, and replied,
"What if we don't want to be forgotten?"
We're all just a little bit lonely.

He turned to her, "Maybe I do."
And she looked into his eyes,
"Why would you want that?
"It's such a scary thing..."
We're all just a little bit lonely.

"We all get a little scared,"
He gently said, glancing at the sky.
"Maybe we're all ready forgotten,
"In our own way." He said without a tremor.
We're all just a little bit lonely.

She glanced at him, her eyes wide,
"I'm not sure I would like that...
"Who wants to be forgotten?" She looked at him.
"I want to live in your heart forever."
We're all just a little bit lonely.

    1st stanza "He turned her to ask." maybe try "He turned to her to ask." It just sounds better and reads better.

    I liked how it was a conversation and how you used description. I loved the word choice and format of the poem. The flow was also good. I gave it a 5/5.

    Hmm. I like it, a lot.
    But, 'we're all just a little bit lonely' didn't quite fit in at the end of EVERY stanza.
    Other than that it was amazing.
    I loved the meaning, and the way you put it all into words.

    Keep it up, hun.

    This poem actually made me go 'Aww' at the end. It is sad but at the sametime, made me feel a little hopeful. I loved the fact that this didn't rhyme because it made it seem so much more realistic. It was very well done and the repetition again was great! :]
