I cry alone Because I cannot bear to see you cry And I cannot bear it if you don’t. My pain is mine alone And I will not let you judge me, Dismiss me And belittle me, Or care for me either. I do not want your pity, Or your disdain either. I want peace But I have nothing of the sort. I have my own pain And the loneliness it brings. There is no other way.

The Safety of Loneliness
I cry alone Because I cannot bear to see you cry And I cannot bear it if you don’t. My pain is mine alone And I will not let you judge me, Dismiss me And belittle me, Or care for me either. I do not want your pity, Or your disdain either. I want peace But I have nothing of the sort. I have my own pain And the loneliness it brings. There is no other way.
