I Stand Alone

A Poem by The Warlock

Being alone, then not, then alone again.

I stand alone, because I can.

I stand alone, because i want to.

I stand alone, because I just do.

I stand alone, because I am alone.

I stand alone, because I have to.

I stand alone, because nobody else will join me.

I stand alone, but I don't want to.

I stand alone, but that will change.

I don't stand alone, because I'm not alone.

I don't stand alone, because I have joined others.

I don't stand alone, because I am accepted.

I don't stand alone, because I laugh with them.

I don't stand alone, but something is amiss.

I don't stand alone, but they no longer laugh with me.

I don't stand alone, but they now laugh at me.

I don't stand alone, but it would be better if I did.

I stand alone, because they have moved on.

I stand alone, because they think they are better.

I stand alone, but I don't want to.

I stand alone, but I want to go back to them.

I stand alone, but I'll forgive them.

I stand alone, but they won't come back.

I stand alone, because I am alone.

Why am I alone?
