Poem 1

Not Alone

I close my eyes and all I see is black

In my mind I take a step back

Forgetting those words full of hate

Forgetting all the people I've come to hate

Slowly I begin to go crazy

Because of all those things people say and what's done to me

I'm tired of feeling this way

I want the pain to go away

Should I take a step forward and plunge to my death?

Should I asp and take my very last breath?

My friends and family tell me no

But they don't know what I've been through

It would be easier to take my own life

Just to stick out my chest and plunge in the knife

Wouldn't it be easy?

Wouldn't it be better if there was no me?

As I come to think of it, I think not

My life, my world deserves another shot

When I thought I was all alone

I think again and had always known

That people out there feel the same way

That people out there feel like they're about to cave

I'm not alone in this

But I only wish

That others would realize this

You're not alone 

and I just wish...

You keep your life like I did mine

Because there is a light in you just waiting to shine

and as that light shows bright as shown

Just know that 

In this world

You're not alone
