Alone


precious time slipped,
a million times
bitter words exchanged,
a million times
soulful tears fell unnoticed,
a million times
hurtful remarks smeared,
a million times
pricey moments melted,
a million times
worlds altered, lives changed-
once more, I am alone.

This gave me the sense that whatever we do, we end up back where we started.

there's truth in those last words, we might end up alone in the end but is the end really all that important?

I don't know, makes think how lonely life can be sometimes

good to see you back with another one so soon...profoundly sad poetry, but, a good one.

We are always alone we just sometimes think we are not!
