Alone…Or By Yourself?

 

Have you ever felt alone…in the middle of a crowded room?

People surround you, yet no one knows your name.

You look for a dance partner; find one, and then the band stops playing?

Lonely feelings…emptiness…solitude…when will it end?

 

I sometimes sit at home…by myself…and think.

I think about my family and friends…and smile inside.

These are people who care about me, need me, want me around.

Happy feelings…fulfillment…companionship…now I understand.

 

I can choose to be by myself…and not be alone.
