Alone.

5 words.

2 syllables.

A major problem within itself.

Not only are we the cause but we are the reason.

Yet as time passes something begins to happen.

Rejection rolls off of us like water down a stream

Strength flies away from us like the birds travel south

And walls of raw emotion fall down with a deafening thud.

Swimming through the lakes of emptiness we are captives of this prison.

Where no one may intrude and no one may leave.

No one listens.

No one understands.

The dark and lonely screams hidden underneath the skin of our souls.

Alone.
