Alone & Vulnerable (Poem)

It's sometime between

midnight and dusk.

I've been silent for so long.

I go ahead to speak to myself,

But my voice cracks as if I opened a nut.

I pace back and forth with

so many thoughts,

but still not being able to think clearly.

Wanting to talk it all out, but having no one to tell so.

I wrap myself in my sheets and rest my head on soft pillows,

realizing how at night

 I'm so vulnerable. So alone.

A thought went through my head,

made my eyes stream saltiness.

I ask myself 'Why?', as if there was someone to answer.

So vulnerable and so alone.
