Shattered and Alone

A Poem by FlatLineBeauty

Another from my old note book. 2010 or 2011

Inside she falls apart

Everyone she loves fades

On the floor are pieces of her heart

Shattered

Broke

Stomped

Cussing all her regrets

Ruined, precious friendships

Now all she does is fret

Sick

Lonely

Depressed

All the unbearable pain

Running through her mind

A smile she will feign

Emptiness

Tears

Misery

This really reminded me of an Ellen Hopkins poem. The format and depth to it. Truly chilling. Your work is beautiful and sorry for not being on or reviewing much. I've really missed your work! I loved how the left side described what the girl was going through and the right side summed up each emotion she was experiencing. I miss you and we really should take some time to catch up :) -your forever bestie :)

I can relate to this poem a lot. The pain in this poem speaks to me. It wasn't that far in the past that I felt like this. I think everyone has been through something like this and probably still going through it. The writing of this poem in the way you positioned these stanza is striking. You feel a finality to the feelings. You feel the distance between what has happened and the feeling it made you feel kinda like numbness. The feeling expressed by the three words of emotions for each group of stanzas fit so well. I have poetry that I have written like this while I was hurting. All in all this is a very well written and wonderfully descriptive poem.

I kept repeating the words Shattered Broke Stomped - Sick Lonely Depressed - Emptiness Tears Misery.. Like an anthem of sorts, it was kind of therapeutic to be honest. I'm a fan of this sort of poetry because it makes the reader feel that he/she is not alone in facing the troubles and depression this world so often couples you with. Was a really honest, write, not just some skin deep poetry like there are so many on this site. This one had true meaning, true emotion.
