Don’t threaten me
And tell me, that you’ll leave
Or cast me aside and I’d be on my own
Because that place to me, my darling
Is somewhere I’ve lived
For a long time, all alone
For most of my life
Being by myself, on my own
As a child and fully grown
So, if you think you’re sending me Somewhere I’d hate
Think again, you’re way too late
Just remember my dear
I don’t fear this place
So sending me there
Is no disgrace
And this, a little ditty
Of how I feel alone in this place
To me that place is sacred
Special, almost like I am at home
So if you tell me that you’ll leave
Or push me far away
Just remember when I am alone
It’s a bus man’s holiday
I sit, I drive, I work on my own
Enjoying my thoughts, all alone
So, if you think that telling me
“You will be all alone”
Is going to worry me
Think again there my lovely
Just remember that
I was a dismissed child,
A lonely teen, home alone,
An ignored partner, mostly on my own
A serious mountain rambler, that’s my choice, I know
And alone it is my space. I feel at home
It’s not some where I fear
Or a place that fills me with dread
Alone it is my safe space
Where I’d gladly, lay my head
Alone to me, is not alone
A place I’d gladly, call my home
So if you think that threatening me
Tell me I’ll be on my own
That my dear, it’s not a threat
It’s where I’d leave, you to be
Alone it is a safe space
A place I’m proud to be
It’s somewhere I do not fear
Unlike your mood swings darling
Your constant shouting
Swearing and different types of abuse
Being on my own my dear
Is bliss and where I cherish
