alone

by angela - Gemini

i long to be alone
all by myself
no one but me
myself and my mind

if people come near
i'll shout
"get the hell outta here!"
"get out!"

when i'm alone 
i do what i want
when i want
no one to entertain

i can do nothing
or i can do everything
or maybe just something
whatever floats my boat

happiness comes when i am alone
angriness, depression
come with people who bring them
then they stay at their liesure

my best works come in this time
the time i'm alone
i write freely
no judgment lies here

people judge
they critisize
they bring my flowing words 
to a hault

they make everything go blank
my mind is empty

maybe i'm scared
frightened at what they might think
will they think it's dumb?
will they crush my proud moments?

proud moments 
i have few
they come when i write
they stay forever in my mind

people, angry people
kill this pride
kill my happiness
all is lost forever

Reason for writing:

    i wrote this poem because i long to be alone. i can write wheni am alone and when i am not alone i can't truely express what i am feeling for fear of what people will think of my feelings. i write from my heart and the things i write are not always nice, but the only way i can write them is if i am alone.
