The Pillar
A Pillar that stands all alone
After others have all come and gone
Continuously supporting, as is it's duty
Holding nothing back and giving completely
Out in plain sight, but totally unseen
No one hears its silent scream
The ache of loneliness never healed
The void of happiness never filled
The quiet urge to be worth more
But never having an open door
The constant burden weighing heavily
I am that pillar; that pillar is me
After others have all come and gone
Continuously supporting, as is it's duty
Holding nothing back and giving completely
Out in plain sight, but totally unseen
No one hears its silent scream
The ache of loneliness never healed
The void of happiness never filled
The quiet urge to be worth more
But never having an open door
The constant burden weighing heavily
I am that pillar; that pillar is me

About this poem:
This is the first poem that I have posted on this site, and actually I've never showed this poem to anyone before.I definitely do not consider myself a very good poet, and I do not write regularly. Just sometimes when I'm really emotional about something, I start to rhyme a little. As in this case, I was feeling pretty down; alone and just not seen, even though I try to be and do everything right.
