Better Without You
Is it always better to be alone? Moments in life it is good to be alone, but not always.
the first time I am without you, I feel blue;
incredible free, but I also am too
scared to fly alone in my life to be true
Since my divorce, I feel alone. I want to feel loved, just like a warm blanket. I want to feel safe. I feel empty like there is a whole deep hole in my body. It’s just that deep. I didn’t know I could feel this way. Empty. This comes from deep within. And I don’t know how to feel right now.
