Standing Alone - 2015

a poem about missing someone that you love

I stand alone,

no one to lean on.

I stand alone,

ready to fall.

I am standing here,

no one to cry with.

I am standing here,

missing you.

You are not here,

to lean on.

You are not here,

to catch me.

I will fall.

You are not standing here,

no shoulder to cry on.

You are not standing here,

to catch me.

I will fall.

I am standing here, 

missing you.

I can really relate to this poem after losing my father...you feel like you will fall, and yet you are doing just as you say...standing there missing them. Beautiful poem.
