Everyday I'M Alone

See me sit here and cry.
How can it get any worse?
Even the worst are happier.

I wish I could change,
Someday, maybe I will.

Not soon though.
Over a period of time, I might.
Today is not the day.

Another thing is; I'm broken.
Not fixed or happy. 
Definitely not unscarred.

Nothing inside me is full anymore.
Even my mind feels empty. 
Venturing out feels unbearable.
Everyday, alone.
Reacting to the constant issues.

Woman's rights.
Illness.
Loneliness.
Love.

Becoming harder and more challenging
Everyday that I'm alone.

On this day,
Kids are dying.
Adults are suffering.
You can't do anything about it.
