Loneliness

Loneliness surrounds me
like a darkness in the woods.
The unseen frightens me.
The sounds and noises are deafening.
Desperately clinging to a tree, I close my eyes,
wishing I were home, wishing I had a friend,
wishing I had someone to talk to.
But all that is present 
is not of this world,
the forest has sucked me in
and wont let me out.
Isolated from the world,
from everything I know...
if I died
no one would notice.

I hit the tree
out out anger
out of frustration;
nothing happens.
The tree doesnt care,
it doesnt feel a thing,
it doesnt even notice my presence.
Forest life goes on
as though I'm not there;
I sit and cry
hoping someone will find me.
