Solitude
I have found serenity in loneliness;
the solitude has given me peace.
As I strive to mend my broken heart,
and make your memory cease.
I still long to hold you,
to have you in my life.
Still yearning to be with you,
and have you for my wife.
I can't explain these feelings,
or why they're still so strong.
I can't force you from my thoughts,
even though I know they're wrong.
So I’ll just keep myself to me,
and try my best to cope.
Solitude is so much easier,
once you've lost all hope.

the solitude has given me peace.
As I strive to mend my broken heart,
and make your memory cease.
I still long to hold you,
to have you in my life.
Still yearning to be with you,
and have you for my wife.
I can't explain these feelings,
or why they're still so strong.
I can't force you from my thoughts,
even though I know they're wrong.
So I’ll just keep myself to me,
and try my best to cope.
Solitude is so much easier,
once you've lost all hope.
