Standing Alone

*(This is my first attempt at writing a poem so feel free to critic. LOL)* I saw myself in the middle of the crowd Go sideways or fall down, they get and straighten me up Disappearance took over leaving no sound Now I’m standing here, no one to back me up.   Trapped in a maze of distorted reflections Beneath the dark abyss, my spirit thrives for light The me that is standing, living and breathings here right now Sends my life wavering and running out of delight.   I lost myself which crumbled loudly to the ground But before I am completely crushed by this vast world someday I remembered the tears and allowed to resound To think back on what did I really lose that day.   I will surely hold it in my hand somewhere in the future As it ablaze and lights my empty heart Pressing that handful of courage against my heart And through it, be able to survive another day.
