Desolate

by Alicia   Jun 1, 2007


Alone in this world.
Not a friend in my sight.
How do I go on,
With my daily plight?

I'm standing around them
but nobody cares...
I sit in silence
While a few of them glare.

Some friends I have.
What if I died?
I imagine my funeral.
Will none of them cry?

So that's it, I'm done.
I'm taking my life.
It's time to put use,
To this old rusty knife.

Everything is in order,
I shed a small tear.
And with one quick motion.
Let go of my fear.

    I really enjoyed this poem b/c I love nice even flow and rhyme, but it's a bit cliche. I've read so many just like this... I written so many just like this. I give it a 4/5. Can you do me a small favor and change the titled to "desolate"? You'll really be doing yourself a favor b/c half of all poems are titled "Alone". lol Just friendly advice. Thanks for the comment.
