How much is the plight of a person being left out in a relationship?
How deeply it scrapes our heart when the person you entrusted the most betrays you and leaves you when you needed them the most.Being left alone and not cared too much by the people around you, who weave your web of life, is heart-wrenching.
I really wonder why I'm left behind why I'm not dragged along like the rest Why nobody turned back to see when I stumbled why nobody cared enough Why everybody kept walking with their backs turned towards me why nobody saw my footsteps when it stopped making the prints next to the walking society Why the dust trail of the wheels kept rolling along my side people looked, glanced and left and nobody gave hands to help or even to try I wonder why I'm left behind with the whole caravan passing by I started with them as big family and now I'm becoming a load, too heavy to try My feet are wounded and my soul is tired my voice is weak my gut wrenching pain is too hard to bear nothing seems to quench my thirst while I'm choked on tears I wonder why I'm left behind I'm taking my last few breaths all I'm left with are my tears rolling down in dust I wonder why I'm left behind why I'm not dragged along by the mere people I trust.
I love how your words really capture the feelings of depression, following you from now on 😀 I also have a blog called Tabula Rasa if you ever have the time 😉

This one really touched me. I was reminded of those times when I was homeless and was basically all alone. Your words expressed that raw emotion. Beautifully written.

Times have certainly improved sine then, I can assure you. It was just something about reading about the stuggles of being alone that resurfaced those memories. I love how a writter like yourself can bring back those thoughts.

Nobody should go through such time in their life.We should never feel alone in life, even a single hand , a single conversation matter and we all should have that.
