The Chain

I need some time alone.
Some time on my own.
To find myself in this world unknown.
Be a dear and understand,
I don't expect you to hold my hand.
Because just when your grip would begin too feel familiar,
You'd pull away,
Stray away,
For something better.
However I cannot blame the fool,
For slipping further and further away.
For when all is said and done,
The fool to be had was me.
It's a play that I do recognize.
Nothing new to the scene.
But before I let emotions get the best of me,
I'll just take some time.
To cure this rediculous obsession I have for love.
That's why, you see,
I need some time alone.
Some time on my own.
