Alone

No one wants to be alone,
But for some it can't be helped.
Far away from everyone else
They float all by themselves.

I know what it is to be alone,
To feel like no one cares.
But I can surely say to you
That there's not always someone there.

I have walked the empty streets
And seen those considered unknowns.
So I can confidently tell
That even they can be alone.

No one wants to be alone,
But for some it can't be helped
Far away from everyone else
We walk all by ourselves.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
