Let Me Be Alone

Sometimes I just want to be alone. Let the shadow engulf me. Let it take me a way to a darker place where no light can touch me. Darkness grabs me and ties me down with thorned thread. Sometimes I just want to get away. I want to run away from it all. I want to jump in the lagoon where no one can save me. Let me sink to the bottom of the abyss once thought to be never ending. Sometimes I just need to let it all out where no one can see. Lock me away in a tower with a window on the top floor. You'll never see me through it, but maybe you'll see a river of sorrows streaming from it. It's amazing how much I can cry and how loud I can be yet there's no one around to notice.... Maybe that's just where I'll stay.
