I Held Alone

Everyone giggling and laughing,
Set a part I am bitterly smiling.
No one knows that I am here,
In this crowd I have aloneness' fear!

Walking with my friends,
My steps pulled me backwards!
And I felt that my friendship there end's,
Where there were my low standards.

My eyes just passed away from fears,
But still, like to cry where no one sees my tears.
My tears describe my feelings,
But it went in vein because no one was stealing.

Alone to be held, 
Alone to worry, 
Alone to calm, 
Alone to love, 
And alone in brightness of dark.
