Sitting Alone
Written on: January 22, 2003 (age sixteen)

Sitting alone
Thinking about what to write
Will it be a story of long ago
Or a poem of lost love
Sitting alone

Wondering
Where will my life lead me
Will I one day find a way to save the world from pain and suffering
Or will I laze away my life
Wondering

Teaching
Figuring out if I am a good role model for my little brother
Or am I the sister who does nothing
Teaching

Faithful
Will I one day find the one and be loved
Or will it come to the day where I am old and alone
Faithful

Careful not to lose myself
Can you really lose yourself in love
Or is that just a caution, a warning to be watchful
Careful

Looking
Around me I see a war of people being killed
Do we have a leader of power or a power hungry man looking for revenge
Looking

Planning
Will my life go as I hope
Or are my dreams to high to reach for me
Planning

Trying
Going through cold and lonely days
Or talking my life away on warm summer nights
Trying

Standing out
Should I tell him that I love him
Or hid in the shadows yet
Another day and ignore these feelings
Standing out

Stranded
Wondering how hard it's going to be when I'm on my own
Will I have help or will I have to do it by myself
Stranded
