Flying solo


Being with no one is better than being with the wrong one. Sometimes, those who fly solo have the strongest wings. Flying solo, only sometimes does it relieve the poisoning of the mind that we have brought on ourselves by thought, even though we fly solo it doesn't mean we don't care, it just means we no longer have trust for those that want to fly with us, its nothing personal, but sometimes to be strong you have to overgo a tremendous pain, as i say with pain comes strength its true in the sense of people have pushed me so far that i have trust not even for myself so why would i trust you? Riddle me that. Together, forever is a long time, will you be there every time i fall? Will you be there every time i cry? Every time i want to die? Every time i might just try? No. Because every time I've fell, cried, wanted to die, and actually tried, you want to know who was there? Not a damn soul. You can see my scars that say I'm better off alone. I've lost so many damn people, people that want to make false prophecies of; Ill be there when your in need, when you fall, when you cry, and want to die, and might even try. Then when the going gets tough they want to run and act like i never existed to them, I know everyone has their own problems  that is why I'm saying you do you and ill do me. Forever isn't as long as we thing anymore is it.
