Alone



Alone
Feeling as if crying
Sadness overwhelming
Hiding in corners
Frightened to see

Dwelling on unhappiness
Worried for others
Wanting for happiness
Yet what can be done

Keeping an eye on things
Tears falling from smoky eyes
I cannot go on as such
Cannot reside alone

I need to do more
To care for more
To be more
And to love more

So I carry on hiding
From the sadness of life
With pearl tears presiding
And still I remain alone
