Lonely with Friends

Lonely with Friends

A Poem by Death's Poet
"

Inspired by a song called "Get Well" as well as personal experience with some people like this

"
We scream, we dig our heels in and kick
We won't stop until they all know we're sick

Our misery puts on a private show
With front row tickets for everyone we know

Our scars aren't real until everyone sees
Only when they watch are we brought to our knees

But when no one is looking, our story ends
Because being lonely's only fun with friends

Misery loves company -
Whats the use in being sick if there's no one to take care of us and to sing 'Soft Kitty'.

More to this than meets the eye, Shadow Poet.

Some people only look to us when they want a shoulder to cry on - we become their pain patch that they stick on when their fun friends are off having fun and they can't go or weren't asked. Soon we wise up and see through their act - the sooner the better for all concerned.
Cool write. I like the topics you've written about recently - no wonder you're into psychology :))

this kind of behavior is quite common in kids and adults too are not an exception, we all seek sympathy when we are sad. I sometimes find it difficult to understand how emotion influences our thinking and in turn action when they too are product of our thinking. Nice poem as always :)

I love these lines because there is so much truth there. No one ever knows what we have been through, what we hide and the scars we wear. Very good work in this poem I really liked it :)
