Disclaimer: This has nothing to do with me. I'm not lonely! :P
I was all alone, drowned in solitude, engulfed in my blues,
And I failed to see all those beautiful hues.
I was safe! Huddled with myself in my heavy silence,
I believed it was my prudence.
Darkness glowed everywhere,
There wasn’t but a single flare.
I fell in love with the shadow,
Everything else I forgo.
But my soul began to ache with the gloom,
I was digging up my own tomb.
There was a longing to break out of that dark shell,
And unknown to me it wanted to rebel.
I saw a hand reaching out to me,
Which, all this while I was blinded to see.
It was the ray of hope, and that of joy,
That called on me to open up and enjoy.
Sunshine burst in through that little rift,
And spread out quick and swift.
I wanted to rein that destined throne,
Though in the end, I knew, I will be all alone.
Not much of a painting, but it's mine!

I can't pretend for too long,
that I'm who the world thinks I'm.
I may not be the normal one,
My kinda fun might sound weird and uncommon.
I am what I am!
I may not laugh with you,
I may not enjoy what you do.
But I'm not your everyday cuckoo.
I am what I am!
I hate the sniggering magpies,
I find nothing but sighs!
Hey, you really are boring,
Don't you realize you're just barking!
Why do we all pretend,
Why can't we just be?
What is it that we have at stake?
In the end we'll all just brake!
I love my loneliness,
My reflective silence.
I miss that accepting caress,
and that gloomy sadness!
I miss your buoyant smile,
You could've waited awhile.
I love dreaming about you,
I know one day you'll make it all come true,
For you know, I am what I am.
