Alone
by Natasha Alex
You are my only friend
You keep me company
Because you are always there
When all has left
You are mellow, you are quiet.
And even if I bear your name,
My silence will never be broken
Because there is no one else
Left to listen.
You prance in my mind and play
games with my head.
And yet, no matter how tiresome
I grow, I dance with you.
Because you are my only friend
Not the whispers of the wind,
But the silky sound of your
name, your laughter, is what keeps me
Alone
