I sit
Alone
Is that all I'll ever be?
Alone?
I have to think back now and
Remember times I wasn't
Not that long ago, really
I remember now a time when
I was surrounded
I couldn't get away
If I tried
You were always there
Even if I didn't ask...
But now..
I have to realize who I am
I have to see myself for what
I really am...
Good enough?
Strong enough?
I didn't know what this
Feeling inside me was until now..
Fear..
I didn't know what I was afraid of
Until you left.
I didn't know what to do anymore
You had always been there for me
To call me late at night and talk
To me for hours and days at a time
To cry
But now that you left..
I have to see what life is like
Alone
Author notes
I still have a fear of being alone sometimes. I had to think back about a time when I was distraught and my heart had just gotten it's first heartbreak. I had made this guy my life, and I didn't know what life was like without him, cause I had always experienced things with him. And then I found out what it was like to be alone..that was scary.

Wow, very deep. If someone were to paint a picture symbolizing 'alone', they would do it with paint..but you did it with words. Fantastic job!
