What some people do when they're alone.
When Alone
By: Traci Ann

Sitting in the dark
Loud music blaring
Depression overrunning

Hate washing over me
Those that have wronged me
Must pay

Never will they do so
Life is too unfair
It will never be the same

Gazing at the letter opener
The ideas
Swimming through my head

As I pick it up
I swear
This is the last time

Pretty redness
Welling up against my arm
Dripping to my black pants

A smile plays at my lips
I am fine now
All is well

As I sit alone
I wonder
If this is truly the last time
