But it just lasted a while
I was supposed to smile
But instead I cried the nile
I was supposed to smile
Someone listen
I was supposed to smile
No one's here
No one cares
No one sees
No one tries
I'm left alone
This is when I cry
This time I won't try
I won't fight the tears
I'll let them fall
Gently caressing my face
Rolling down like a race
Grieving heart, leaving a trace
Hard times I can't erase
Joy I can't bring
Bells that won't ring
Again, I was suposed to smile,
But it just lasted a while

This is such a sad write. "No one cares, no one sees, no one tries." Well, I feel like that sometimes too but realistically speaking, no one will come and rescue you from your misery. It's kinda something you have to do yourself. Keep writing! Blessings.

i'm not going to say i feel like that too, to comfort you, but to let u know i do feel like that too, just so you know, but u know what i say; i say, "don't expect anything from anyone, and you won't be let down, only surprised", like that happens for me anyway, not. i think what is funny is that here is a poem like expresses my feelings for the past couple of ....so on.. and i didn't even write it... so i suppose no ones really alone, it's just a small worls with closed eyes...

Awwww. So sad..
Like Timebot said though, you need to help you. But I know that having others makes it easier.
I felt like this, once.
I hope you find happiness and peace soon.
