I feel so alone

Alone like no other

Other people don’t understand

Understand what I am doing

Doing what I do

Do what I feel

Feel what I am

Am what I think

Think about what I have been

Been in places I have

Have heard the sound of silence

Silenced are we

We are silenced

Silenced but screaming

Screaming but alone

Alone like no other

Others are strong

Strong are we

We need to band together

Together we can rise

Rise with hope

Hope with joy

Joy with laughter and crying and peace

Peace is what we are needing

Needing and getting

Getting when we join together

Together we are not alone.
