All alone, my thoughts they burn,
But through my pain I do learn.
I am me, I can’t be fixed,
There is no cure, it doesn’t exist.
All alone, I do survive,
Through my pain creativity thrives.
The words flow out, they are my soul,
Keeping me sane, keeping me whole.
All alone, I do cry,
Writing these words that never lie.
No one can feel it, they can’t possibly understand,
The only one that really knows is the pen in my hand.
All alone, I dream so big,
Hoping for a life I know I’ll never live.
The dreams live on inside my mind.
I think about them all the time.
All alone, my heart still beats,
Through all these nights I do not sleep.
I count my blessings; thankful just to be alive,
Without this mantra I just couldn’t survive.
All alone, I see so clear,
Wishing my hardest that you were here.
I’ve learned to let go of so many things,
But this isolation is really what stings.
All alone, I feel the pain,
It wears on my mind, it stabs at my brain.
I am not bitter, I won’t be like you
I’m not a coward; I know I’ll pull through.
All alone, I know it’s temporary
But I am only human, this time makes me weary.
My spirit is low, it needs to be refilled.
I’ll never give up, I never have, I never will.
