Analysis of You're not alone



Pain masked by expressions
Not selling distress
A heart torn by struggle
Hidden in breast
A cry for a assistance
No sound is exposed
A life with a purpose
The door to it closed
A mind running restless
Its answers left blank
No signs of its misery
A soul as it sank
A kind hand extended
A shoulder to lean
An ear for a question
Their pain to be seen
Reach out to your loved ones
Or strangers in need
We're in this together
Together indeed
