Alone

Alone
it's how we're born
it's how we live
it's how we die

we wander
searhing for companionship
hoping to be freed from ourselves
to know we're not alone

but we are
we're alone our entire lives
living through
with false hopes and pretenses

some try to say
you're never truly alone
there's always someone who loves you
but it isn't true

no one is always loved
because no one always loves
we doom ourselves to
a life of loneliness

a life where we think that one person
can make us feel alright
and when that person betrays us
we simply have nothing left to live for

but in truth we never did
we were born alone
we live alone
and we'll die alone

and that's just how
this sad world
full of sad, lonely people
works in reality

    The first part drew me in and i did enjoy it, although it was too cliche for my liking, you had good flow and was very well worded.
