Analysis of Alone



Alone, such a strong word like hate, or love
Sitting in my apartment thinking, "is there a God above"?
Killing time, repeating my everyday actions,
Most likely turning to the bottle again.
Everyday I should stop, get out and see some attractions!
I have no urge, I'm alone, don't know how long it's been.
From the time I wake up, to when I drift to sleep
I never know the condition I'll be in, this is getting deep.
Most people say "home is where the heart is."
Obviously, I can't agree with that statement.
Kind of depressing as I read, my mind runs like loose kids
A home is going to someone waiting for you to vent.
You may disagree, and that's ok.  I'm alone....everyday.

About this poem

After clearing my mind, and trying to meditate while in a bout of depression, I came up with this poem. If you look close enough at the poem, there is something hidden, something that many may not even notice.
