Alone

Shut out, cut off
from the world around;
lonliness in silence, 
breaking not with sound.

Left out, no one
to call my very own
arms that do not hold me,
but leave me all alone.

Closed out, Sadness
all that I can see
laughter, smiles and tears,
cheeks not wet for me.

Pushed out, left alone
blackness fills my brain;
Nothing left to understand 
this world has Gone insane....
