POEM In a world of billions, I am unique, My emotions, a symphony is so sleek. My joy is like a ray of sun, Bright and fleeting, yet so much fun. My sorrow, a heavy, rain-soaked shroud, Weighing me down, without a cloud. In a world of words, I find my voice, A whispered melody, a poignant choice. I search for others who can hear, The secrets that my heart does fear. But alas, they pass me by, Their ears deaf to my sighs. For only I can understand, The depths of my own soul's demand. So I stand alone, a solitary figure, My feelings, a complex, winding tangle. No one can know the depths I've plumbed, The secrets that my the heart has drummed. So let my heart sing, let my words flow, For only I can truly know, The depths of my own feelings, the secrets they hold. Story: Sometimes I keep my feelings to myself because its hard to find someone who understands. The character of the title: A young guy who stands alone.
