Alone again, I'm left to taste
The merriment from which I've flown.
Lighthearted laughs in which we baste
Breathe silent breaths from nothing known.

Alone again, eyes roll and scream;
Cry out for lover's gentle touch.
The shadows haunt, the darkness gleams
As ravens feast on hearts and such.

Alone again, breath cold and light;
I wish from captives to be free.
Yet goblins, in their fun and spite
Refuse to hear this lonely plea.

That was kinda sad, but very true. i like alone again, i think since it starts every stanza it's the perfect title. awesome poem!

BLARRRRRRRG....i feel sick.
Anyway another great poem....no comment on the title thing cuz if i come up with a good one i'd most likely use it for myself. Anyway great poem!

That sounds like a perfectly fine title to me.  The poem itself is very well done, you did a great job on it!  I really like the first two lines of this, they just seem so....i dunno....perfect

Keep the title...it fits this perfect. This poem is sad but very moving. When I was reading it I got all kinds of pictures in my head of lonliness and longing for someone to hold you...great poem. keep writing.

I agree w/ every one else here.  This is a great poem.  Hope this trend of being lonely is broken soon.

I'm sorry...but I have to say this...I HATE it when people say "This is said but...". What's wrong with sadness? It's completely natural and it's just as important as happiness. Anyway, sorry just had to let that out. You're poem was BEAUTIFUL. I know how you feel on this one...you'll be oke though...just give it time. I can't think of a better title right now, sorry. I have a hard enough time thinking of my own.

This was definitely a very good display of your talent, Carly.  The topic was simple but you used all your resources to just make it glow.  It's very well done, in that it displays many aspects of you as a poet!
