“When I Need to be Alone, I Don’t Mind You Coming Along.”

Once,

there was an instance

where I’ve had the urge

to claim my right

to be alone

Then,

Only when you’re there

Have I never had to,

Since you came along.

With the way

I have been treating

myself

For the way

They have treated me,

I have never questioned

The doubt

That I have always felt

About you, and

About me.

It occurred to me

That doubt

will always stay

‘cause only

When there’s doubt,

Can there be faith.

It’s only you

That I trust myself with,

And it’s you

In my heart

That I won’t rid

Thus,

When I need

To be alone,

I don’t mind

You

Coming along.
