Folorn

I tread lightly, cause no trouble
Stay in my bubble, and yet you're still here
Impolitely here in my home
Won't leave me alone, but I will be cleared unsightly
Patience tester, say you pestered
When you should go and count rightly

I won't cower, so face my power
As we come to blows
Don't know why or how you found me
Like a shadow you surround me
Don't pretend you don't remember
When I was made to defender

Why do you ignore my wishes?
Why do humans act so vicious?
Try to live alone and selfless
Could it be you're really helpless?

Well I was fine when I was lonely
No phantoms here to haunt or hold me
The rules I have are rules you scorn
You left me so forlorn

Run away, when I found the trouble brewing
Here I stay
Now I must defend the ruins
It's endless All this ennui, how it haunts me
I miss the good times
Now friendless, shadows lurking, I keep searching
For one to be mine

I'm menaced by my memory
Haunted every night and all day
My tenet's not to make waves
Stay out of the way and I'll be okay

But now I know you're not a phantom
And though your presence seems so random
I still find there are no answers
For the partner with no dancer

Maybe I was far too hasty
So afraid I'd lose my safety
Can't make up for my mistakes, be
A better host to guests that grace me

Lessons learned too late to reach me
No grand companion's love to teach me
When sorrow on my sleeve is worn
I'm born to be forlorn

You want me to shake your hand?
Even after I've wrongfully attacked you?
But that is a sign of friendship!
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have a friend
I mean, I think
I don't really remember what that entails
I guess I'll give it a shot, if you will
