Managing to stand alone,
Wondering where we go,
When we're left all alone.

We stumbled down the hole,
Of hope, misery, and life,
And when we want to leave,
We can't crawl out.

The person you love leaves,
They'll never stay.
The person you trusted,
Now leaving you hurt.

The pain intense,
Like a burning flame,
But never seen.

Some People put up walls.
Block us out. Ignore us.
Some people go on like it never happened.
Hurting inside.
Some people mourn.
And go crazy.

Me?
I stand. Watching them walk away.

And smile.

The author's comments:
I wrote this while listening to my mp3... Three sad/happy songs came on one after another. I was pumped and the first line popped in my head. Writing, this flowed out. Nothing really caused this. Not a break-up or anything. See what you will!
