I Am Tired of Being Afraid

It  remains my heart
All of left me
When I needed them most.

In the dark time
None I could see;
My pain,
My tears,
My frustration,
There was no one with me
There is no one with me
There will no one with me.
No one; I guess I am sure.
I felt pain,
And fear,
And sadness,
Again and again.
Now
I am tired
I am tired
I am tired of being afraid.
