Dear Stranger
Hello there dear stranger, I hope I didnโt give you a scare.
I was walking through this lonely world, and felt your pain over there.
I know you try to hide it, and grow scared when people draw near.
But I came here to say I know your pain, and I even know your fear.
Iโve been there when the ones you love, decide to end their life.
Iโve been there when thereโs nothing left, but loneliness and strife.
Iโve been a child with innocence stolen, in the darkness of the night.
Iโve been there when the world seemed dark, despite the brightest light.
Iโve been there when that sadness turned, into anger and despair.
Iโve been there when the world is cruel, and shows it doesnโt care.
Iโve been there when the fear seeps in, frightened by your own mortality.
Iโve been there when youโre scared of existence, more than the next reality.
Iโve been there when you think itโs better, to be used than to be alone,
And Iโve been there when you think itโs better, to be made out of stone.
Iโve been the one to hurt others, though it is never what I want,
And this is just a tiny list, of all the pain I have to flaunt.
So please donโt forget Iโm here for you, and I hope you try to see,
That though I am a stranger to you, your pain is no stranger to me.
my name is Floki, it's not my real name but the one I prefer ๐๐ I mainly write poetry to express my emotions, whatever they may be. I do enjoy science and dark imagery in all my writings. I also like to write stories and game scripts. I hope y'all enjoy my work and thank you for reading. ๐โโ๐
