Solitude

Far away, I see people, i can hear their chatter 

Close by, I see just my paper and pen

I can hear, nothing but peace 


I sometimes like it when I'm down

don't want anyone to faze me and my alone time 

Don't haphazardly talk to me when you know I'm down

I need space, I need to be alone 

don't want help, don't want contact 


Just let it rain, 

it don't bother me 

it sometimes makes it better 

sometimes not 


let me be, deep in the ocean 

where i can be surrounded by 

fish and sea creatures 

Don't let me end up in a tank, 

where I can't swim freely 


Let me be, deep in the jungles 

where i can be surrounded by 

birds and green 

Don't let me end up in a cage 

where i can't fly freely
