A/N: I always find it sad when I look through my book of poems and come across such ones like this one... I was so sad... so alone... so depressed.... I can’t even imagine how I used to be.... God truly has helped me out of my hole...helped me to appreciate life....Praise be to Him! At times, I wonder why I even post my sad and depressing poems here.... but I guess I upload them because I do not want to forget that part of me... I want to remember the way I used to be, so in the future I can appreciate who I am now.

I am alone

I need no one

I am me

I need no one.

---

They ask why there are none I love

I need no one

Love only breaks the spirit

I need no one.

---

They ask why I hold back

I need no one

Withdrawing is my protection

I need no one.

---

You ask why I don’t seek attention

I need no one

Being noticed is a foolish desire

I need no one.

---

You say I have no heart

I need no one

My heart is buried beneath a sheet of ice

I need no one.

---

I am alone

I need no one

I am me

I need no one
