Alone

Why is it that I feel I need to be alone?
No one around to talk with
Nobody to show the emotions I wear
So many scars I’ve been alone to bear
Always lived within myself
Unable to share any of myself
To weak so I accepted defeat

I tried to find my place
Someone with whom I could relate
It seemed like they weren't me
Not on my level
So I threw them back into the trash

Somehow it entered my mind
I don't need anybody else
I'll be fine with me and mine
I couldn't see
Just how much I would need
Someone to whom I could bleed
Explain away my fears
See it's not just me
No matter how much it seems

Have a friend
Without strings
No rules written
Nothing set in stone

See the future shining clear
Full of fun and fond memories

Not the end looming near
All alone sad and blue
Full of tragedy you know you've caused
Unable to live within yourself anymore
Need a release swift and complete
The choice was yours
Can’t you see?
Let me be
