All Alone Poem by Sneha Murali

All Alone

Rating: 5.0


the awful feeling of being alone
when night time comes and the light is gone
i look at the stars across the nightsky bright
my eyes with fear and my heart with fright

a chilling feeling crawling down my neck
absolutely no eyes to look upon me
all at once invisible, out of sight
sitting with my heart beating, only mine

not a soul, no fly, no mouse
not a footstep creeped inside the house
the only company being the leaves rushing in
left to my own thoughts, a world of silence

next day, staring at the brick wall
no sound, no sight, feeling deaf and dumb
the only life, i live alone
for never a gain come my way

around me, ghosts, spirits of my past
reliving each second from dusk to dawn
a nightmare during day, my sleeps
a stone hit upon my glass soul

walking a line, as thin as my life
a fall could mean sheer disaster
but what more disaster do i need
my balloon like life deflating faster

my only guests being - hate and neglect
my only friends being- myself and i
withering away like a dead rose
like a plant that has not been watered

got a bit confused, looked like a childhood fear of being lonely being penned but then suddenly turned to some kind of hatred and gloominess, not sweet, but yeah the way the idea of loneliness taken with the ghosts, was distinct
