This Life

My worst fear is my reality. I'm in a room, surrounded by people, but I'm all alone. I scream but no one can hear me. And they don't care. They're too busy with their own lives, and have absolutely no time for me. I feel alone and incomplete. No one will help me, and I can't breathe. I am small and weak. I fear that this so-called life will never end. I don't know how to stop it. I think it will never end.

I'm cold, and I feel tired. I am alone. My parents think they're unable; they don't even try to speak to me anymore. My room has become my tomb, and an ambiance of death is around me. I am alone in this gloomy hole. There is nothing that will keep out the dark. My spirit is weak; I don't think I want to go on. In fact, I know I don't. Anything would be better than this life. I can see my family now. I don't think that I've seen them together since Grammy passed away. Their ridding in a car, but it's not ours. I think that it's a black Buick, but it seems a little fuzzy. My sister isn't screaming at me, in fact she acts as though I'm not even sitting next to her. She seems sad, everyone does. I see a beautiful field to my left it looks like a cemetery. We must be visiting Grammy today. But I don't know why. We only visit her on her birthday, and we did that last spring. I can't keep up with my family they walk too fast. I try to run to Mother, to ask her what's going on, but I can't. I feel alone. The pastor from our church is here, and I can hear him say, "Ashes to ashes, and dust to dust." But who is buried here? I can hear Father comforting Mother, while my sister sobs in grief. But who is buried here? I scream so loud that I think even God can hear my cries, "Who is here?" I am alone. Last night I had a terrible dream, of death and my family's grief. I don't know why such a thing would happen to them. They're terrific, and loving and kind. Why would someone hurt them like that, how could they be so cruel? It's quiet inside my house. I must be alone. Mom must be out shopping with Sis, and Dad should be at work, but their not. They went to a funeral today, to go and bury their son. They left me alone again. I wish I could say, "I'm sorry!" But that would be impossible. My worst fear is my reality today. I'm in a room, surrounded by people, but I'm all alone. I scream but no one can hear me. And they don't care. They're too busy with their own lives, and have absolutely no time for me. I feel alone and incomplete. No one will help me, and I can't breathe. I am small and weak. I fear that this so-called life will never end. I don't know how to stop it. I think it will never end. I am alone. Forever. *If you or anyone you know has had or is having thoughts about suicide, you are not alone, and there are people out there who care and can help.
