How to be alone

It feels like everones talking about me

isolating me

shutting me out


It feels like no one cares

Leaves me to die

to fend for my own


It feels like people turn a blind eye

scoff in my face

spit at my feet


It feels like no one wants to be my friend

like no one wants to listen

or have fun anymore


Hey but at least now

I know

How to be alone


I know how to sit in silence

I know how to make friends with the dark

I know the feeling of an empty heart


I know how to be alone

Its a skill I have developed

One I wish not to have, but one i cannot get rid of


I am alone

And thats ok

But it makes everything seem rather gray


I want a friend

A comrade

A companion


But i am better off

Being friends with my mind

Because i know how to be alone
