Abandoned is worse than alone

Abandoned is worse than alone

it means you had something and it left you

chose to, perhaps

it means you were willingly and knowingly left behind

if you're alone it could be by choice

you're by yourself

it doesn't have to mean lonely

it can just be solitude

a feeling I enjoy

but don't always crave

 

Abandoned is worse

because you are left by someone or something you relied on

and it is gone

leaving you alone

the words work together to mean

you're on your own now

  • Excess

    Am I too much or not enough?

    Do I care?

    Not really... 

    this is my year to not care

    with the excess pieces of me tying themselves up

    covering up

    armor before it changes

    "it" being everything

  • Systems

    I'm a system of equations

    and you're my matching set

    no answer to the variables

    we spend our lives trying to solve

    I don't know who I am

    I don't know who you are

    but I know who we are

  • Never wiser

    I had a dream

    I was at the high school

    I couldn't carpool with a buddy

    we were late

    it was dark outside

    I didn't know anyone there

    I didn't know my schedule

    I didn't know what was happening
