A Poem About Loneliness: "Alone"

Christina Demmin
Alone and in pain, I sit in the dark.
Unhappiness grew and lit up the spark,
The flames start to grow and warm up my fear
Around my heart, flames of despair leer.

But steady flames hold a calming effect,
Hypnotize and grant more time to reflect.
Fire warms the chill of love's past regrets,
Icy chains and locks are what love begets.

Emotional fire burns in my head,
Flames of betrayal or love instead?
Without the cool breath of love's sweet caress,
Without knowing wintry love's happiness.

I'm trapped in the fires of loneliness,
Looking for the cool calm waves of kindness.
Choice is ahead, do I love or still yearn?
I decided to be alone and burn.
