Alone

The bodies linger around me
Death and decay stenching the air
I'm the only one left
Alive
Yet dead and alone

THey all left
Knowing I would survive
Yet they went 
And left
Anyways

Their bodies lay there
With smirk looks
Sprawled across their faces
Mocking me
All alone

They are all together
Either up in Heaven
Or down in Hell
Laughing at me
Still here on Earth

Their spirits may surround me
But I'm still alive
Still alone
Yet 
More dead than ever
