    Alone

    For every step I've taken, I cried many tears.
    I continued with faith through the roughest years.
    So many nights I prayed to find someone who's real.
    But the only thing I found was lonliness in the still.
    My only companion are the haunting memories.
    Through betrayal every friend becomes another enemy.
    Lonliness, my friend-the one truth-the one I've known the longest.
    But in each heart-shattering moment, I find myself the strongest.
    In my sorrow I find my soul.
    I know myself and have myself to hold.
    Alone again, but it's better this way.
    Because I trust only myself....
    And that's how things will stay.

    I have felt the same way most of my life and in fact feel that way often still.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
