Alone

I look left then look right but yet there is no one around

Go through the options in my mind and no one is to be found

How did I end up in this place I really thought I tried

The support I myself have given out in return has been denied

I think have I missed a person to ask, there’s someone I must of left behind

Yet here I am in this place, messages left seen yet no response I find

I’ve loved in big spaces, extended my all when it’s been asked

But when my desire for it to be reciprocated I’m aware people seem to leave fast

I don’t really have answers, this I know cos my heart has surely searched

For the love that I so openly give, the return feels like it’s deserved

The valley is deep and challenge rough when I see the mountain yet to climb

But deep down I know the biggest battle I need to fight is the one that’s  in my mind

How do I sit in the darkness alone, find the hope and not despair

I must conclude solitude is my strength even though the possibilities seem scarce

Remember, go back, you’ve fought hard things before

Even when it feels like you’re facing this alone it’s bravery that’s aroused at your core

You’ve done it once, actually think, dwell, it’s been many times in fact

The perseverance, the fight within you it’s still intact

So take heart my brave soul even though the path ahead brings fear

For you’ve conquered many trials and all those moments, lessons have brought you to this place, right here
