i live alone.. but i am never alone

have you ever broken up with someone you were living with?

its hard.
and it sucks.


-imbalanced

i live alone
but i am not alone

as the room empties
my soul feels lost
he packs his things
and my head feels heavy

i live alone
but i am not alone

just me and my
lonely bed
with only the hope to
live another day
alone

i live alone
but i am not alone

want to be independent
live in quiet confidence
be the woman
who has a man
but doesn't need a man
must be happy with myself
before i can be happy with
someone else
but are those women happy
with themselves? am i
striving for a life
no one has
do we all need somebody
or do we all want somebody
what is the difference?
in the end
we're all alone

i live alone
but i am not alone

how does the story
really end

i live alone
but i am not alone

do we only have god
to get us through his own tests
is that cheating
a selfish act to make yourself
the answers to your own questions
is that what i'm trying to do
when i kicked love out of my life
trying to life alone
stand my lonely ground
i don't believe god
is the only answer
god isn't selfish
like me
he made his children love
for a reason. so why
do i feel the need
to do everything myself

i live alone
but i am not alone

when will i accept this
phrase into my life
into my heart
when i'm thirty single and
still living alone?
when will i embrace that
i'm meant to love
not just myself
not just god
when will i be happy
with myself
with god
with whom?
why can't i have it all
the perfect balance

how does the story
really end

i live alone
but i am never alone

Thank you, Maida. I love this poem. I ask myself these questions everyday. I hope that you're able someday to find satisfactory answers...or that at least the process of finding answers is satisfying.

Love you!
