deserted and alone

[sherrie]

deserted and alone
by choice, by action, by deed
i found myself addicted
i felt safe in my need

alone and afraid
of memories, of people, of place
i found myself this comfort
where i could hide my disgrace

afraid and angry
at me, at you, at them
why can't i find the peace i crave
i'm hurting all over again
