Please, don't leave me alone

Please, don't leave me alone
Don't let me shutdown
Just keep talking
Cause it keeps the light around
Please, don't leave me alone
Even if I beg
I want it so bad
But can't stand the pain
When I trap myself in my own head
And get lost in the dark
Sometimes it lasts for days
I walk around unaware of my sorroundings
And all I hear is muffled sounds
So please, don't leave me alone
Even if I try to argue
I'm not really mad at you
But these thoughts are pouring through
And I don't know what to do....

Wonderful imagery...very good writing...look forward to reading more of your work, (sigh) when I have the time :)

This poem screams emotional dependance. Very powerful and I dare say claustrophobic. We feel that the subject cannot live without some sort of presence.
Really well constructed poem. Great imagery.

Wow, I can really relate to this right now.
"When I trap myself in my own head

and
"I walk around unaware of my sorroundings

So please, don't leave me alone"
Those lines especially relate to some of the things I'm experiencing right now. This is great, you really were able to capture relatable, honest feelings and express them just right. Great job!

[Coyote Poetry]

Sometime it is hard to ask for help. Poem is powerful. I could feel the desire to not be alone and need to know what must be done. The story was very good in the words. A excellent poem.

"But [I] can't stand the pain
When I trap myself in my own head
And get lost in the dark
Sometimes it lasts for days"
"Even if I try to argue

These stanza speak volumes to me; I suffer from Bipolar and am often left feeling this vary way.
Great Job!
Keep up the good work.
