You see me sitting all alone,
Quiet in my little space.
You think I’m fine, I like the calm,
But I’m trapped in this empty place.
I wish your gaze could pierce the veil,
That hides my silent plea.
I wish you'd see, behind the still,
How hard it is to breathe.
You think I choose this lonely shell,
That I prefer to be apart.
But the silence cuts, it pulls me down,
Tearing my soul apart.
I wish you’d care, I wish you’d see,
The pain I’m hiding deep inside.
But I’m left here, alone to fight,
With no one by my side.

Hey readers, I'm so glad to announce that I've just finished posting 200 parts, that is 200 poems in my other poem book: 'Poems about Love.'
I'd really appreciate it if y'all could check it out and let me know what you think about it. <3
PS: I was young when I wrote the initial poems of that book, so they might not be that good. But I personally like the poems that I've been posting recently.
Thank you so much :)
