Alone
May 19, 2013
I don't wanna be alone
Sitting by a broken piano
Watching the rain come down out of my window
Waiting for you to come home
I don't wanna have to stay up all night
Always knowing there is no point
Constantly staring into the night
Hoping I'll see your headlights
I'm probably going to find out again
You left me for my friend
If that's the case, you should just go
Then I'd be happier alone

How sad! I feel for the speaker. The main crinkles in this were rhythm blurches and inconsistent rhyme schemes. Iron those out and voila! In all honesty, it was a lovely poem. I like the scene you set up with the piano and waiting for the person. Gives a clear picture of the waiting and self-expression for and towards the beloved.

To be nobody but yourself in a world that is trying it's hardest every night and day to change you into everyone else is to fight the hardest battle a human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
