»Being Alone«

by Ryan Gordon Penn

Mangled faces, distorted love
Strangled feelings, an angry shove
Tangled emotions, hurting bruised
Dangled Guilt, like being abused

Is anything better than being alone?

Countless nights, I've waited
Blindly believing, so frustrated
Wishing honesty, time wasted
Rewarding Care, often lambasted

Is anything better than being alone?

Losing Love, Crime claims
When abused, Feel ashamed
Removing you, Don't Blame
Another night, Never came

Is anything better than being alone?

Is anything
Better
Than being

Alone...
