My Short Story Book

Loneliness

I sleep alone
I cry alone
I think,
alone.
Loneliness could be cured
If you tried
But I haven't
I have friends
But many don't know
how lonely I feel
I smile and put on a happy face
Saying "I'm alright"
While inside I cry
I try to wash it all away
With words of self worth
But in the end,
They're all worthless
To me...
But when I see him
The tears fade
The pain settles
But when he leaves
It comes back
There is no end
But...

I still try...
