To Be Alone

To be alone
Is to have tears
In a large crowd
To be alone
Is to be silent
When others are loud
To be alone
Is to be empty
And a little afraid
To be alone
Is to feel your heart
Has been betrayed
To be alone
Is to look happy
But be so sad
To be alone
Is to remember
All we had
To be alone
It’s a feeling I know well
To be alone
Confined
In my own living hell.

It's amazing how you described "alone."
"To be alone
is to look happy
but be so sad"
I think this poem portrays beautifully an emotion that everyone feels once in a while.
