So Alone

This is a poem I wrote on October 5, 2009, and it's from the point of view of a speaker who feels alone while going through a rough time in their life.


Here I sit, so alone
Lost in my ruminations
And I may even have some hallucinations
As I think of a time long gone


Here I am, so alone
And I'm lost in my worries
I think I live my life in such a hurry
In order to block out the pain


Here I lay, so alone
I find that I start to weep
As I toss and turn, trying to get to sleep
The confusion keeps me awake


In the end, I'm alone
And I'm working hard to find
An end to this madness and some peace of mind
I want to find happier days
