Alone

How can you leave me here?

With only a whispered goodbye

You let me out and when I turned around

You were gone

How could you leave me alone?

With only my pen and paper

A silent companion

For a silent heart

How do you just turn away?

You know how I am when I’m alone

My mind takes over

And logic ceases to exist

How could I have been so naïve?

Thinking I would always have someone

Holding me through the hard times

Reminding me what is true

How can I go back tomorrow?

Knowing what awaits me there

Cold stares, frozen words

Covering up a boiling pain

How could I let myself do that?

To continue on like nothing was different

Knowing full well that nothing was the same

And letting everyone wonder why we were so happy

How did he fall for me?

The bookworm, the outcast

The one no one wants to get too close to

For she says she is cursed

How could he have known?

His world will be shaken

His reality skewed,

That’s what happens during the first year

How can I make things better?

In reality we are all alone

Alone in the world, alone in our minds

Who can break us free?
