When I'm Alone

No one's here.
It's only me
So I have to only be.
No need to challenge
No need to expect
When I'm alone I never fret
I Only listen
Only learn the sounds outside my window
The fern
The birds, the trees, a fox, the sky
The entire world passing me by
Only me in my little chair
Thinking of things that were never there Imagining what the day would have been like
If I had been a little tyke
Not understanding what it meant
To experience a curious event In which my love would say goodbye
And I was sad
And I would cry
For when you're young you believe you can fly
And most of your life quickly passes you by

Yes, when I'm alone I imagine these things
Without a care
No binding rings
No endless fights
No mounting fear of futures that are far too near.
When I'm alone I do not think
I do not need to have a link to the world outside
It isn't there
I need not care about the peope everywhere

I don't like being alone.
