Alone in This World

Sitting alone in this dark corner

Trying to drown out any other noise

Trying to find myself because

Deep down i know I'm there somewhere.

As i sit there,

Trying to hold myself together

Trying to hang on to what life I have left

Tears are running down my face.

First one, then another

The tears just keep comming

And there's nothing I can

Do to stop them.

As I sit and stare blankly at the wall

My self-pitty is slowly

Getting the best of me;

Destroying me.

I ask myself ; Why?

Why do I have to live with so much pain?

Why can't I live like a normal person?

How is a normal person supposed to live?

But more importantly; Why me?

I've seen the light

And I've seen the dark

But never in my life

Have I felt so empty

So abandoned

So alone...

I not know that

Darkness does prevail

And when it does it destroys you;

Slowly piece by piece

Taking what you have that you

Can't live without

Until you have completely given up

And you are no more.

I love this one! Great imagery and the reader really gets to understand how the narrator feels due to your great explanations about how you feel. Should be a story, wish it were longer.

It sounds as if Kit Kat doesn't really like all the emotion (I could be very wrong though, it's just how I interpreted.) but that is what I love about poetry. Poetry is emotion placed into words.
Your feelings are very well expressed.
If I may make a suggestion, the enjambment is a bit odd. If you want it to flow slightly easier, try making the syllables of each line in a pattern. But it's fine the way it is. It's all about effect.
