alone

I feel safe

when I'm alone

nobody to hurt me

just me alone

nobody to tell me I'm wrong

no one to turn down the volume of my song

I don't have to hide myself behind a fake smile

only when I'm alone

no one can judge me

or break me down

I can dream as big as I wish to

nobody will say no

yes I'm safer on my own

when nobody can claim control over my heart

I'm all alone and nobody can hurt me

It's good to be alone sometimes. We all need to spend time with ourselves to figure out who we are. Great write :)

[tiffanyrenee]

We all feel that way at some point. I like it :)

[Horizons]

Yeah, it's a true feeling comes up when we feel alone and when we're lone sitting in a corner of a dark room, nobody can judge us if we're alone. It's a deep writing. I liked the loneliness of your soul.

I kinda feel the same way sometimes... Nice one, Adri...

[smilempsn]

hmm sometimes we all are alone.....
But if we all are alone.. then we all are together in that too..

So always remember, no one is alone... May b physically .. but surely there are many dear n near people who would love to remove that loneliness :)

Solitude sometimes is. Love it.

All these sentiments are true, but their is always a growth that exists when you subject ourselves to failure, criticism and emotional attachments. Well put Adri, but you will never truly appreciate these things if you don't experience the others as well.

[Archangel Gabriel]

Such a sad lament. It does not ring true as the subject of this poem is crying to be loved and accepted but feels vulnerable.

i enjoyed the truth in this piece, I feel that you put a part of yourself into this,
which i'm sure you do with all of your poems,
but this piece is beautifully sad

There can be peace in loneliness. A sad and lonely song. Sometime we need time to gather our thoughts. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.
