Alone

I turn to you.
You aren't there.
You left me by myself.

I face the world alone.
Confronting my problems.
Celebrating the joys.

You wanted too much,
more then I could give,
You kept pushing for more.

I pushed you away.
You didn't come back.
I was left alone.

My heart was broken.
I was alone again,
I wanted you by my side.

You weren't there.
I picked myself up.
I went on without you.

I hardened my heart.
Made the walls a little thicker.
Wondering if I was doomed to be alone forever.
