Loneliness, everyone feels it at one point or another, only us teenagers moreso... Goddamn hormones...
I walk alone,
Forever and Ever,
Never seeing,
Never feeling,
Just walking,
Forever and ever,
The road unending,
Infinite torture,
And I walk it alone....
Never a smile,
Or a helping hand,
Never a light,
Through the shadows,
Which drown me like quicksand.
I walk alone,
On this dark road,
Not knowing where I'm going,
Where I've come from,
Where I am.
So close to the edge,
So close to jumping,
Hanging,
Bleeding,
Drowning,
So close to the end,
So close to the edge.
Don't try to save me,
Don't try to help me,
Don't try to stop me,
Just get out of the way.
--Ahem, anyways, this is such a familiar feeling-- such familiar content written in a different poem-- that all I can say is, "Wonderfully written." What else can I say? It's damn near perfect. The bitter tone, the hopeless emotion, all the mental descriptions of feeling alone and not wanting help: it's just as Mugetsu said, "This is splendid."
This poem rips your heart out. Especially the last stanza, how you're dying for loneliness and how you don't want anyone or anyTHING to get in your way.
While you introduce this as hormone induced, there is a very strong maturity in your words. I like the sarcastic humor at the end. Quite an attention grabber.

Very well writen poem, with well writen emotions. I can relate to being alone, I have done that my intire life. But I am not lost, I know what direction I must go, I always wonder why people can't fallow in my direction. Why can't they understand a true path, but then I just walk alone. No need for death if your will is stronger then those who has not suffered true pain. I have experianced enough that they can't bring me down, nor will they. If they laugh at what I have done, I laugh at how silly they are becoming, and how weak there mind is because of the sheltered life they live.
