Challenge
What if I want to be lonely?
When He’s Around
People have not ceased to be with me,
Since that tragic day.
They say it's to keep me company,
And they try to get me to stay.
The only problem is that I
Don't want to be around.
Is it wrong for me to want to sit
With silence as a sound?
Because when I'm alone,
I feel his presence near.
Maybe I'm crazy for thinking this,
But it makes being alone nothing to fear.
So when you try to cheer me
By staying by my side,
The sadness only grows
Because that's when he hides.
Do not be offended if I
Don't want to go out.
Just know that I'm smiling
Because he is about.
I'm tired of the talking
I'm tired of the fun.
I just want to stay home.
With me, and no one.
I want to hear the silence.
I want to be alone.
Because when he appears,
I finally feel at home.
