I used to pretend
that I’m fine
hiding inside
my castle wall
protected
sheltered
from the world
it’s prejudice
it’s lies
it’s tragedy
I was quite contented
in my makebelief
world
of perfection
of beauty
until
it crumble
and I was forced
to face
reality
that I can’t be
on my own
all the time
that I need to live
to be with people
to share
to laugh
to cry
but I’ve been
on my own
for awhile
it’s hard
to have company
once again
to give
to love
to live
one more time
I’ve given
so much
before
I’ve lost
a lot
Am I to blame
If I rather
choose my
own company
