Alone

Alone during my childhood years Alone I stand as an adult Fighting off tears and all my fears Amidst the uncertainty and profound confusion Of my younger years I stand alone

Your poem has nice flow but would be even better without the word 'profound' in line 4.

Hello Rukhsana. All of us feel lonely at some times, that's why we write poems. You will get over it.

Being alone teaches a lot of things. Being alone made your pen your best friend. Hug your pride in the secret of your loneliness :)

You are not alone, only you don't recognise your friends, cheer up.

we are all frighteningly alone. but one can and should enjoy life even if unhappy. money, keeping busy, and good company can help. enjoy my poems. feel free to comment. be well.

One is never truly alone, if you can call anyone at all your friend.

And alone, no mourn for it at noon, at afternoon nasal groan. And alone, no moan for it at evening, at night rattling bone. And alone, all born for it at shining morning are dancing........../// nicely penned

Sounds sad that someone always has to do it alone, withstand the things making you sad. I hope you don't have to stand alone much longer. I really enjoyed your poem.
