Alone In the Dark

Sitting here alone, in this dark corner
Feeling depressed
Hoping that someone will talk to me
Wishing someone will make me feel strong
Make me feel happy
Instead of weak and insignificant

I am tired that everyday I make someone happy
I cheer them up when they are down
I ask them if there are any problems in their life
No matter who you are, I want you to be happy
If you are homeless I will give you money
If you need a friend I will be there
And if you are depressed I will give you a hug
That is just the way I am
Some call me a push over
Some say I’m a fag
But I am not

I do those things because I care
Because it kills me to see someone sad and not do anything about it
I don’t ask for anything in return
I wouldn’t do that
But for once it would be wonderful if someone would
Give me a hug
And tell me that “I am here for you”
That would be sad if I were gone

Is it crazy to want to be told at least once?
"I love you"
"I want you to smile"
"I wont let you die"

I can only remember 8 years of my life
8 of the most painful years I have lived so far
And in those 8 years every second of every day I have been tortured
I have been brutally beat, physically burned and mentally damaged

Do you know what it is like?
Not having anyone to talk to
No one to tell where I hurt
No one to hug me
No one to say “It’s not your fault”
I just wish that for once in my life I could here someone say

"I’m here for you"


"You mean the world to me"




"I love you"

    This poem holds more truth than you realise

    It is an excellent poem and You know what? I also feel this way. It would be nice to hear those things. I could say them to you and you could say them to me, but it's those people around us that we want to hear it from. They are the ones that take us forgranted,always expecting us to be there. ..You did a great job. Well done.

    Nobody is insignificant, or should feel that they are.

    I love the second stanza, and I wish that there were more people like that around.

    I'm here for you if you ever want to talk.

    Thankyou for entering and best of luck.

    Forever--x

    Not bad at all...I really enjoy the structure and the text...people don't know shit about being ditched. People like you and me do everything for people...just to get it back ONCE IN A WHILE...EVEN ONCE ONLY! It's so ironic how we live for others...but other people can't pick up their phone.

    "Sitting here alone, in this dark corner
    Feeling depressed
    Hoping that someone will talk to me
    Wishing someone will make me feel strong
    Make me feel happy"

    Oh how I've longed for this...seems to be a lost cause sometimes...

    Very personal...I see the effort into this...the spacing at the end adds to the effect of longing...just for simple words that can make us so happy. I really did feel this peace. Great emotion here. 8.5/10...keep going.

    PS...read 2 of my poems. 'SICK OF IT' and 'Just Be Prepared'...you'll enjoy.
