Let me know what you guys think of a poem I just wrote entitled 'Alone'.

Alone

  

All I do is watch and stare
at the computer screen sitting in front of me.
With nothing to do and no one to see
there is not a thing I can do.

As time slowly fades away
and the clock is ticking unhurriedly
I feel as if my life is out of my reach,
almost as if I am here for no purpose.

With no one around,
my life is bare and uneventful.
I had set high dreams for myself,
but none of them were accomplished.

I believed what I was told
when I was younger and was loved.
The expectations were high for me, but were never met
so for now, I am truly alone.

Yo dear Shooting_rubber,

I like this picture and poem combination.  
Everyone, in a number of ways, is truly alone.

Love Bobby
