Alone

She sits there with him
But she feels alone.
She talks to him daily
But she feels alone.
Someone she knows is just like her
Yet she still feels alone.
She knows that people care
Yet still she feels alone.
In the darkness she sits
Sitting alone.
Fighting the urge to cut
She's all alone.
In her lonliness she knows
One cut will not matter.
In her heart she knows
One cut is not all she will make.
She fools herself into thinking
That the bright silver blade
Will fade this feeling of sinking
And makes her pain go away.
She plans to tell not a soul
She will keep it all to herself.
She keeps in her mind a goal
And she cuts her arm with stealth.
Bleeding upon her bed
She knows not what to do
She had this desire in her head
Knew not it would come true.
She just wanted to numb the pain
To make it go away
Yet on her sheets there's now a stain
And on her back she lays.
She thinks of not a single thing
As she stares blankly at the ceiling.
She lays alone in the dark
Glad of what she's not feeling.
But then she comes back to life
Seeing what she has done
She quickly puts away her knife
Wonders why to this its come.
Now she feels truly alone
She cannot tell him what she has done
It's not him she wants to be killing.
She cries and cries
Sitting all alone
In a pool of blood
Her brain is array
She hides from him again.
She cannot tell how alone she felt
Knowing he loves her so.

This is a powerful poem. You have quite a talent here, hun. I have a very close friend that I have recently found out was a cutter. She knows that I write an has read some, and she tells me that she wishes she had something like that to put her feelings into to see if she could quit cuting. You have that talent and lots of it. Try next time to let your words cut the page instead of the blade your skin. The poem had get rythmn and flow. The emotions of course were quite strong and moving. You pull the reader along with you quite easily it would see. Keep writing hun. Blessed Be. Tig

Sometimes it's easier said than done... people come with a past... and each person to their own way of coping... not that I don't want to stop... sometimes its just A LOT harder than it shoulh be...

No one should ever have to feel what your describing...no one should ever be that alone or afraid of those closest to them. A riveting read. Well done.

No matter how the situation of being alone and being loved makes you feel you have a talent that needs to be notice by the world. No need to brighten that silver blade, that was a good abstract write however lets not make it reality I feel you pain we all go thru this on a day to day basis yet hold on be strong and move with your pen, not without. The lonely thought of suppresion is deep within your pen in this poem, yet if he loves you or not hold on your a strong yet sensitive character who will one day display your creative and emotional talent in great places.

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

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
