A quick piece I penned down. I wrote this because I felt alone and lost, even with all my friends and people surrounding me. It's just a triggering feeling when you can no longer be who you are in front of them when you can no longer expect something from them.. and the only thing that's holding you back is the treasured memories you once made with them.

I was there, picking up petals,
but you didn't see
I was hiding in the dark,
Afraid to speak
The look on your face
it left me distraught
I knew it was a race,
a fight, now i know i should've fought
you were alone, I saw your tears
i wanted to wipe them
I wanted to calm your fears
I wanted to hold you tight,
I wanted to whisper it wasn't fair
your tears i wanted to wipe
for you to know i did and still care

Truthfully, if it were not for downs, we would have no true and relevant concept of that which up was and or is. That said, I do hope that things are better in your life, as your well expressed words penned above do serve to indicate that they were not during those moments when you quill found itself dipped in the ink of our common (to all humanity's) loneliness, sadness, helplessness, and misery of events that we find we simply cannot control, nor reverse and undo ... It is at those times that we often find that our thought to be friends were but handy acquaintances, and never truest friends at all ... Powerfully spoken and well said!
I enjoyed the honest thoughts and the questions in the poetry. I wonder myself. Would anyone miss me? Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

I can associate with this but I remember what Leonard Cohen said about the cracks in our existance being the only way light gets through. A sad but lovely piece.
