Always Alone.

Thus is about my inner battles I fight with, and how I'm trying to survive in my own head.

I’m always alone.

Stuck to my self.

Never trusting a soul.

I like to believe i'm better.

Happier.

In some ways i am.

But I’m still broken and scared.

I know I’ll never get back to where I was.

I want to trust.

I want to love but, I can’t.

It’s not me anymore.

I get through each day.

I'm still breathing.

I remember when I wanted to stop breathing.

Now I reach for it.

I’m reaching for that breath of fresh air.

But.

I’m stuck.

Drowning at the bottom of my heart.

Alone.

No One to Listen.

Only to Compete.

“I have it worse than you!”

“Oh, Shut up cry baby”

So I did.

Now.

I’m Alone.

Stuck.

Stuck with my own thoughts.

Drowning.

No One to pull me out.

I chuckled because its nice to see that I'm not the only one that's ever felt that way. You finally got someone to listen, or in this case read, because you put yourself out there. I think this poem is amazing because you describe the struggles within scenarios in our everyday lives. Would you mind if I pull you out because I want you breathing for years to come? :) Take care and keep writing.

I really don't get it when people say others have it worse. Pain isn't measurable. It's not like anyone tells a cancer patient to get over it and there's all kinds of cancer... it's better to not listen to them and just express yourself like this in writing poetry. This is so raw and emotional, thanks for sharing.
