I waited, and you didn't come.
I called, and you didn't answer.
I knocked, but you weren't home.
And I realized that I was alone.
I cried, but no one comforted me.
I screamed, but no one heard me.
I gave up and laid there.
Alone. Why was I always alone?
I hurt, but there was no help.
I begged, but I was ignored.
I laughed maniacally at my foolishness.
I knew I was alone.
I was always alone.
No one was there.
No matter how many times
I called knocked, cried, screamed...
I was alone...forever alone.
I was fake.
I was imaginary.
I was a pawn,
But most of all
I. Was. Alone.
No One There To Help
Alone
