Alone...

Feel so empty, 
I feel so alone.
Feels like a hole,
Within me I assume.

What I had was friends,
What I lost was everything.
Why does everyone else,
but me have that one thing.

To have people who care,
To have people there when you need.
To have people who will stay,
and have people who will listen.

What I had was fake,
They were never the real thing.
But yet I felt like they were.
To be with me.

Now the worst thing I imagine.
Is now happening to me,
and that thing is one word being,
alone....

Sounds like you are a good person Eric, and someone really wronged you. I think it would be wise to do some soul searching. Maybe you were too good for these people Eric. Sometimes being alone can be life altering and good for the soul. Take advantage of this time Eric. Cause the good thing about being alone for a time is no one can tell you what to think or do. Make this about you Eric. They don't sound like they were very good to you. You'll find a kindred soul, don't worry :)
