there are worse things
than being alone.
Of course
there are worse things
than being alone.
but right now
it feels like
the only thing
that hurts.
it feels like
the lone rain cloud
pouring only over
me.
i don't have anybody
to hold an umbrella
for me.
i don't have anybody
to seek shelter in
from the storm outside.
it is so hard
to walk around life
with many people
who call themselves my friend
but aren't truly.
they would never
stand in the storm with me.
they would fend only for themselves.
i can't do this
alone anymore.
and i know
there are worse things
than being alone.
