Why Am I Alone? Poem by Annaya The Poet

Why Am I Alone?



I am alone because I choose to be
I chose ‘alone’ to become mentally free
I won’t be broken down and torn
I’ve learned to love myself, I am re-born
That’s why I can go to the movies at night
Sit in there by myself and it’s alright
That’s why I can eat lunch by myself at the mall
I feel dam secure in myself and all
That’s why I take trips alone to the zoo
Sitting quietly watching what the monkeys do
And it’s okay because I’ve spent many a day
Getting to know myself in every way
I am alone because I choose to be
And I’m happy being alone with myself and me
I refuse to settle for being one of his pawns
Upset because he comes in at the break of dawn
I use to put up with all sorts of stuff
His games until I’d had enough
Sick at my stomach cause I knew where he’d been
Found out though it was with my girl friend
Its okay now but I cannot lie
I loved him and didn’t even have to try
But its okay now and I see it clear
And I will not waste another year
The next time I love trust me,
I will be mentally, emotionally, and sexually free.
No more putting my faith in a common man
My faith’s in God the only one who can!
I am alone now because I choose to be
Not because nobody wants me
Cause I am definitely the cream of the crop
So many people still trying to get where I’ve got
I’m a beautiful woman with so much to give
And I’ve learned to love ‘alone’ in this life I live
Alone is beautiful it really is okay
And you can make it through day after day
And I’ve learned that if you learn to love yourself first
It’s truly a blessing and not a curse
Find your purpose in this life you live
Giving back what God gave you to give.
Which is the real reason why we truly live.

I am alone because I choose to be
And right now alone is what’s best for me.
