Sad and Alone

A poem I wrote for school. I was in ninth grade. I only wrote this because my Uncle's anniversary was coming up...

Deep in the darkness in my heart,

There is a monster that dwells inside me,

The leaves blow as I pass,

Through the woods you go,

But no one knows you're crying,

You feel the rain fall upon your head,

Again you say this is the worst,

People crowd around as you fall,

You fall into an abyss,

You catch yourself and then you feel alone,

Your love ones can't help because you're going to hurt,

You think the world is ending,

You break down in tears,

Then you know your heart has stopped,

You die at the end when no one knows what it means to be sad or alone.

Author's Note

Just know that I only write poetry when I'm sad.

I'm the same way, much of the time I only write poetry when I'm sad or hurt or in pain. The diction of this piece is beautiful, I really love the emotion and power it contains as well. Excellent job!

That's some kind of dark. A very deep and extremely powerful piece. Very impressive. The feeling of helplessness stands out here. Very, very powerful words. Loved it. Brilliant write.
