Curled In a Corner

I’m sitting here,

Wishing I wasn’t.

Wishing instead

That I was curled un

In a corner.

Safe

And

Sound.

Away from the world.

Left alone

To cry,

In a corner.

With no one there to see.

And no one there to hear.

Leave me there to cry.

Don’t ask me if I’m okay.

Don’t ask me what is wrong.

Don’t offer me you’re help.

Don’t tell me everything will be okay.

Don’t stand there, waiting for me to respond.

Don’t try to give me a hug.

Don’t try to comfort me.

Just leave me there.

Let me be along

Leave me alone,

Curled up in my little corner.

This poem was inspired by my thoughts. I don't actually remember why I was so down in the dumps that day.
