Now that you are gone, I'm scared
A thousand needles of loneliness
Pierce my hollow heart
As if a fire in burning away
My soul in which has died away
Now that I am alone, I'm scared
As rejection after rejection my
Seams fray away so violently
I need somewhere there by my side
And now it really don't matter
Which sad pathetic little girl I have
Just as long as
I'm with her
It's like having no reason to live
Lost amongst the millions of care-free
Individuals roaming this sad planet
I only need to be held, told that
Everything will be alright
Cause when I'm alone I feel
I feel as though life just stops
Emptiness is Loneliness
A dream within a dream
Life without someone there
Is life with no reason to live
Author notes
Anuptaphobia- fear of being single
we all fear something in our lives. Being alone scares the fuck outta me. I used two quotes there at the end placed in single lined stanzas the first one is from Smashing Pumpkins and the second one is Edgar Alone Poe. I felt as though they were realevant.

Congratulations
Merry meet,
Congratulations on winning the Bronze. Your poem was different. Just a thought to pass along...your poem was very hard to read with text color chosen. Lot's of people will not read a poem if they have to highlight it just to read it.....just a thought. Again, congratulations on winning the Bronze.
