Wanting

I wanted to be alone When alone... I wanted to hide away Hiding away without a home Without a home... without a place to stay I wanted to disappear To disappear without a trace Without a trace, without a sound you’ll hear Without a footprint for anyone to chase I wanted to be a stranger A loner... I wanted to be no one A nobody in a world never better A better nobody in a world of everyone I wanted lesser things Lesser... I wanted nothing more More... pleasant dreams Dreams... is what I’ll ask for I wanted no part in our world to play Playing in a world who wouldn’t leave me alone Living alone but the world won’t go away I wanted a place to just call my home ……………………….. 23/10/2020
