Hope Wallin Poems

I must have been born
To be alone,
Because alone is all
That I've ever known.
...

Why so lonely, little girl?
Why do you cry, little girl?
Why do you hurt, little girl?
Why the tears, little girl?
...

Love is when your heart pounds,
And you tap your fingers impatiently,
And get excited to see them,
Hours before you do.
...

Searing anticipation,
And a desire burning hotter than open flame.
I cannot have you,
Yet you've promised me the impossible,
...

My time grows smaller everyday,
I feel as if it's slipping away
Too fast, and it's too hard for me
To say goodbye, as you can see.
...

You never call me
Anymore.
You never talk to me
Anymore.
...

All the poorly constructed,
Pretty lies,
A tower over my head,
That's ready to fall,
...

Not running away from the pain,
I will firmly stand my ground.
I know it will be hard,
And I know that I may fail.
...

Do you ever feel transparent,
Like no one even knows you're there?
Do you ever feel alone,
Like no one sees and no one cares?
...

This pain pierces me like a bullet
Through my chest.
It's a pain unlike all the rest.
Every time I see his perfect face,
...
