Alone by K. I. Maynard

I’m walking down the corridor of time

Seeing what there is to see

Doing what there is to do

Alone.


I’m going to the party down the block

Eating what there is to eat

Drinking what there is to drink

Alone.


I’m shuffling down the country lane

Looking at the colored leaves

Stepping over the fallen twigs

Alone.


I’m going to church every week

Singing their religious songs

Joining in their rituals but I’m still

Alone.


I’m sitting in my room crying because

We used to do these things together

But now the one I love is gone and I’m

Alone.
