I'm Alone

Hello?

Hello,

Hello, is anyone one there?

I feel around and grasp at air

Hello, can anyone hear me?

The darkness around me hides what I most hold dear

And I am shaken by this and wrought with fear

Hello?

As I walk I come across a wall

It is smooth to the touch and tall

Taller than me

How I wish I was free

Hello?

I follow along side of it pacing the line

I come to a corner in time

Then after that another and soon I realize that this was a box in design

I cannot see I can only feel

I wonder if it’s even real

Hello, Hello? WHERE DID EVERYONE GO?

I am in a prison and perhaps no one knows

I cannot help myself

I walk and then I sleep

Then I cry and I weep

There’s no point in living

Hello?

“Hello” I hear from outside the wall

I heard someone call

“Can I open the door and let you outside?”

No I’m just tired

I’m fine

Broken Walls

I don't really know what I'm doing; I'm starting to think that maybe that's okay.
