You're Not AloneA Poem by Dark TowerYou think you're alone But actually you're not You're just on your own You don't know what being alone feels like And you never will Not until all the people in your life Distance themselves from you And they can watch you struggle and feel right I've hit rock bottom so many times it no longer bruises me All the people I used to love used to love me But now it's hard pressed for those sour grapes to move me You think you're alone But actually you're not You're just on your own I've been abandoned by my soul Heart lost desire to grow The girl I wake up to is the girl that I love The guy she wake up to is not the one that she wants I can see it whenever I look into her eyes I'm not a prospective With me she is just passing the time I can't even be mad at her though The curse of the poet I will always be the half that loves the most I can't fathom not giving all I could to see a smile on a person I held close or consider worth my while While others are quite happy lying to me, you don't trust me, I see the creases in your smile I see the lines don't connect In the stories you feed me with such blatant disrespect But I don't deserve your best I'm nowhere near perfect You think you're alone But actually you're not You're just on your own No man is an island But I'm surrounded by waters I can't swim No life boats anywhere Situation looks grim When to find my inner peace And somehow I got lost within Is this a punishment? Lord please tell me my greatest sin Please tell me why suicide feels the only end? Please guide me out the darkness that started growing in my head Please help me stop wishing that I was dead Every night playing chicken with razors in my hand, cry myself mad and paint the floor red, squeezing the blade and hoping the pain will give me the strength to swipe my vein until life force spent. I see faces in the edge of my vision but none of them are heaven sent I blink they disappear and I'm alone sitting by myself Fresh stream of tears Too weak to take my own life, but not strong enough to ask for help.
