Alone

Contributed by in2thetwilightzone on Sunday, 2nd January 2005 @ 06:06:37 AM in AEST
Topic: DreamsandWishes

Alone is what i wanted,
maybe isolation was what i needed,
i distanced myself away,
i was granted of what i pleaded,
now i restrain my eyes,
now i bear a strong chin,
i lock away my yearning,
dense it deep down within,
i put on a false smile,
but no one sees nder my skin,

i used to think that being alone was safe,
no one could hurt you,
no one could push the knife through your chest,
but now i know the phrase isnt true,

as i struggle to pull through without an outlet,
draining the hate just leaves unused desire,
love burns in my heart,
scalding like real fire,

alone i feel nothing,
no counter reaction to my words spoken,
alone i feel i have no healing,
alone is as good as broken,

people say i dont need to be entangled,
i dont need someone holding me down,
but i need something holding me up,
as under deep water, humans drown,

crying about nothing,
crying about feeling tearful,
falling to pieces,
for my heart i am fearful,

i cannot stand on one foot,
i cannot blow away the rain,
i cannot pull out a giant carving knife,
and just cut away the pain,

alone i stand,
skin unkissed,
empty embrace,
presence unmissed,

some speak of myths,
some say that you cannot yearn for something you've never known,
but i know in my heart there is something better,
there is something better than being alone
