AloneA Poem by Kat CollinsDarkest days and fake smiles, pretending....Alone Utterly alone No one reaches out No one cares No one knows Afraid to speak up Afraid to let the fears be known To myself as well as others Hiding Repressing Don’t let them show Don’t let them feel Blinding Confusion Where am I going? Spinning Weaving Dizzy patterns Too much feeling Overwhelming I think I’m gonna explode Burst open Let the dams break The walls crumble Pressure Excruciating Have to reinforce Strengthen the formidable walls Impassable Cold Secure Held back once again A painted smile A nod, “I’m fine” But for how long? © 2011 Kat CollinsAuthor's Note
