Alone

Tonight I want to talk About being alone.... About not feeling connected And why..... I've been loved And I have loved.... But this is about A deeper feeling... Very hard to define..... It's almost painful to describe. Or admit.... How it takes control And divides.... Ones emotions.... First comes the comfort Of not having to hurt... Just ignore what you feel.... It's a silence very sweet... Second comes the knowing You can leave at any time... Just walk away... It's a thrill like no other... No excuses...no plans... No good byes needed to say... Not caring.... Or wondering why... A perfect freedom Shared by no one... Last comes the lament... For being so free That no one will See, how perfect It was just to be me.
