Better Alone

In the midst of chaos, intertwined in dark confusion and desperation. When all seems to close around and strangle, the comfort of loneliness is welcoming treasure of home.

At the edge

Clinging to nothing

My fingers slipping

Grasping air

Yielding to the wind

I fall

Fall to the abyss

Fall to the darkness

Falling swift and hard

Alone…alone…alone

Better to be shielded

Than to be a hinder

Better to be cut away

Than to be drug along

Pity not me

For my loneliness is mine

My shadow can chuckle with me

Irony! Irony!

How vastly you scorn

Surrounded by Nothings

Cold and bitter I feel

So cold, it feels frozen within

Whispers of escape beckon me

Slowly I make it

Better to be alone

Than to be lost
