A Student's Poem

Dark Room

In a dark room, alone and no one to hold

Nothing is as void and yet so bold

I am like a body with no soul at all

My whole family is dead, there's no one to call

Life is like a war that you're suppose to lose

You'll have to die someday and you can't choose

So I stay here and grow like a flower in bloom

Life in here is so alone when you're in the dark room
