There’s a difference between being lonely and being

 

alone.

 

Does taking time to be quiet 

mean I have a heart of stone?

 

If I don’t answer your phone call,

Or if I’d rather stay home,

It doesn’t mean I don’t like you.

I just like being 

 

 alone.

 

The world is messy, tearing our souls from our 

selves.

Time spent in aloneliness

Helps to grow and repair.

 

Am I cold and uncaring?

Do I push others aside?

Sometimes I do, but 

it’s for my own peace of mind.

 

I struggle for balance,

to accept love when it’s shown.

But I have no regrets spending my moments

 

alone.
