Romans & histoires Edgar Allan Poe Poetry Alone

As we drove to school, I connected my phone's aux cord to the car's stereo and selected Devil Doesn't Bargain by Alec Benjamin from my playlist. "The devil doesn't bargain! He'll only break your heart again, it isn't worth it darling! He's never gonna change! He'll never be Prince Charming, he'll only do you harm again! I don't mean to meddle, but the devil doesn't settle! The devil doesn't bargain!!" We sang together at the top of our terrible voices before we started laughing at how bad we were at singing. We got to school all too soon and alighted from the car, only for me to hear Adam muttering something along the lines of "Taylor and party"

The waves were wild, yes, but they always returned home. Each morning, he walked the shoreline barefoot, feeling the cold sand between his toes. Sometimes he wrote in a small notebook, just lines, fragments of thoughts. He didn’t call them poems that word still belonged to her but they were his way of breathing again. He’d write things like: “Maybe peace is not forgetting, but remembering gently.” or “Some goodbyes echo longer than love, but they hum softer in time.” He’d begun to learn that solitude wasn’t loneliness. It was space the sacred kind that let him hear himself again.

POV: V Death is not quiet. It is vast. I don’t wake up. I arrive—pulled apart and reassembled in a place that has no edges and no sky, only light layered over shadow like breath held too long. I am not bleeding anymore. That’s the first thing I notice. The second is that I am not alone. The moon hangs above me, impossibly large, impossibly close. Not a sphere of stone and light, but a living thing—silver veins pulsing beneath translucent skin, phases rotating slowly within her like a heartbeat.

With Colin's departure, I suddenly felt somewhat incomplete. Without realizing it, I had run quite far. I retraced my steps along the familiar path, walking back alone, my heart burdened with sorrow. The streetlamps stretched my solitary shadow into an elongated figure as I bathed in the pale moonlight—a true reflection of my loneliness. As I walked, I absentmindedly kicked at an unsightly pebble. The pebble catapulted into the air, tracing a parabolic trajectory across the low sky before landing in some corner with a faint sound.

I say with certainty. Walking out of the ruins I make a smooth change into my wolf, galloping into the crisp morning air. One sentence repeating itself in my mind over and over: You are all alone. You are all alone. You will always be alone, and you deserve it. That is why they left you.

Caleb I'm so alone, despite being among familiar faces who mean well, I'm desolate and bereft. Not even whole, just the shadow of a broken man whose soul is dying. In the heart of my own personal storm, I see nothing but a vortex of dark monochromatic clouds circling overhead. My mind is a tornado of plagued thoughts, taunting whispers, mocking laughter, ridiculing me for living with a fool’s hope.

The waves beside them danced, but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.

"You step into the night, complete the darkness, with your silver smile and eyes that see through the parts of me, covered in other people's prints. You bleed me dry, tearing at this foolish heart, this foolish heart of mine, and I come undone. So take what you need from me, I give all I am to you, I bare my throat to you, put my trust in you, and yet you let me go. So now I reach out I reach for up the sky. And I'm running out of reasons not to die. Don't let me don't let me go on. Why am I forever and always alone? You were the shadow to my light, but did you see me, did you feel me bleed?

🎶Alone by Alan Walker. 🎶If this night is not forever...🎶 🎶At least we are together...🎶 🎶I know I'm not alone...🎶 "You'll never be alone my love," she heard a whisper in the wind. With her eyes closed she couldn't tell if it was Ace or her imaginative voice but right at that moment, dancing in his arms, her head resting on his arms in a beautiful garden she knew she wasn't alone tonight and if she wakes up alone tomorrow then she'd treasure tonight's memory for the rest of her life.

He stopped scrolling and read the full poem, his skin growing cold with gooseflesh as he did so. Along the shore the cloud waves break, The twin suns sink behind the lake, The shadows lengthen In Carcosa. Strange is the night where black stars rise, And strange moons circle through the skies, But stranger still is Lost Carcosa. Songs that the Hyades shall sing, Where flap the tatters of the King, Must die unheard in Dim Carcosa. Song of my soul, my voice is dead, Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed Shall dry and die in
