I wrote a lot today. My emotions have been all over the place and poetry is my outlet.

Reaching out in the darkness
To find a hand to hold
I find only empty air
Where I thought you would be

I call your name in silence
But there is no reply
I feel so alone and lost
And I don’t know why

I thought we had something special
Something that could last
But now I see that I was wrong
And you never cared at all

I reach out again, but this time
I don’t expect a reply
I know that you’re not there
And I’m finally starting to cry

I’m so tired of being alone
I just want someone to care
But I know that’s not going to happen
So I’ll just have to learn to bear

The pain of being alone
And the emptiness inside
I’ll never forget you
But I’ll have to let you go
