No Longer Alone

No filter on my face, 

Nothing taking my place, 

Only my thoughts 

Of love gained and love lost 

Over years of hard work and no play 

After that awful, fateful day 

Where they told me my life would change 

But I never realized how much 

Til I was left alone to fend for myself 

When I had nowhere to stay for a night 

And I had to find some type of light 

In this life I've grown used to being dark 

Over the years I've given out my heart 

Too many times to the point of breaking, 

But, finally, I think I've found someone who's not faking.

So when I'm alone with no filter, 

I'm quietly filtering through thoughts of no longer 

Being alone.
