A lost tear

My emotions are unstable
I am filled with hollowness
Dread presenting at every turn
Fear my turning into my friend
The future unknown is my battle
The air feels thick as treacle
The weight of the moon on my shoulders
Life’s adventures turn sour
My mind full of horror
Past instances and present times
Today is not a good day
I feel so alone but not lonely
The world moves fast around me
Betrayal burned deep in my mind
A tear slowly fall down my cheek
No one sees no one knows
Does a tear fall if no one sees it
