Alone Poem by Sruthi Sahadevan

With a heart throbbing with
Desire to talk,
Feelings to show…
Yet there’s no chance…
No one to understand..
Only endless tears to shed…
Alone all alone….
With only my shadow to console me.
I ask the tears
Brimming my eyes to stop…
But how can they? ?
Cos my heart is brimming with sadness
There’s no way to show it…
No one to love, to understand…
All alone..in the midst of misunderstandings.
I have tripped once
But do I have to
Keep tripping and falling?
Can’t I balance myself?
But I am helpless
Sad…
But too embarrassed to show
My feelings to others…
My bloody tears to others…
No one will understand…
No one can understand…
What’s the purpose of my life?
If I could save all my tears,
There would be an ocean,
Engulfing the entire earth…
If I could express
My feelings and pain,
Earth could be destructed…
I am alone…alone…alone…
