Words on a computer screen
Sitting alone again in the darkness I have nothing to keep me company except my thoughts and feelings.
I would cry, but I don’t believe I have any more tears in me to shed.
My once warm hands felt like ice now, and my bright eyes have become dull.
I have forgotten what it felt like to simply smile and laugh.
With backs turned, empty seats to my right and to my left, I know it’s true.
I have been abandoned.
My best of friends have become my worst enemies; people that once loved me now hate me.
I don’t understand what to do anymore.
Shall I really lay down right here and let my life slowly slip away?
Should I give up?
What would my reason be to stand up and fight again?
It seems like a constant losing battle.
Maybe I will just lay here a minute. Maybe I will find the strength to move on from this place.
Let me close my eyes and lay my head down, and maybe I will find it in me to stand up again.
Maybe my heart will remember love. Maybe my thoughts will become happy again.
Maybe I will overcome.
For now, I shall close my eyes and lay my head down.
The darkness brings a sort of comfort to me now.
I think I shall stay here a while.
It suits me.
