For I Was Alone
I was alone
For so long
It was my own
Fault.
I was scared
To make a friend
I was scared
To let them in.
I was alone,
And scared ‘cause,
I had been hurt
By the buzz
Of voices in
School hallways.
I’d been broken down,
Until I lay….
Broken,
Defeated
Cursed
And Beaten
I did not stand strong.
I did not fight.
I did cry.
And I wasn’t always in the right.
But I made it through.
I put it in the past.
Even if I didn’t want to,
I at least did that….
You have been alone
For so long.
It’s your own
Fault
You are scared
To make a friend
You are scared
To let them in.
You are alone
And scared cause…
Well… I don’t know why,
But I will put that on pause.
Until you’re a friend,
I will not let you be.
I will help you,
By being me.
For I was scared
For I was hurt
For I was wrong
For I was cursed
For I regret
For I bemoan
For I was hurt
But I was sewn
Back together
Bone by bone.
For I was…
Alone
