Alone

I waited, and you didn't come
I called, and you didn't answer

I knocked, but you weren't home
And I realized that I was alone

I cried, but no one comforted me
I screamed, but no one heard me
I gave up and laid there
Alone. 
Why was I always alone?

I hurt, but there was no help
I begged, but I was ignored
I laughed maniacally at my foolishness.

I knew I was alone
I was always alone
No one was there
No matter how many times
I called knocked, cried, screamed
I was alone
forever alone.

I was fake.
I was imaginary
I was a pawn,
But most of all
I Was Alone.
