Alone

by Clint Sheppard

Yelling loudly,
But there is no sound.

There is no one here,
Nobody to be with me.

On this lonely night,
I walk the streets.

I look at the ground,
And watch every step I take.

I stop under a streetlight,
And I start to say.

Forever I am alone,
In the dark, in the night.

If I knew life was going to be like this,
So dead, so lonely.

I would have ended it,
Left this world, been gone forever.

Who would be there to notice?
Nobody, not one soul.

Because there is no one here,
Which leaves me so alone.

Comments on this Poem

we are born alone and die alone! When this is so, why can't one live alone? Robinson Crusoe's novel will help to overcome loneliness!
