Exceptional free verse Left by Bill Schott Free Verse Poem contest entry Artwork by cleo85 at FanArtReview.com

There is a fear of   loneliness   which crowds my waking thoughts,   never leaving me   alone.     Yesterday I ran with    the crowd;   or really   within the crowd,   like a cheese puff   in a bag of popcorn --   running.     I will be   here   when all are gone;   left.     Author Notes Thanks to cleo85 for use of the image.
