Sometimes I want to be alone
Wishing just to be left on my own
To feel pain of a heart torn

Sometimes I need to be by myself
Content to sit feet dangling on the shelf
Me, myself with my sanity and health

Sometimes I just need time
Being a little selfish is not a crime
Body mind and soul combined

Sometimes I just don't want to share
It is not because I do not care
Just suffocating in life's cruel snare
