I Walk Alone

An Ari Batchelder Tribute

By Iggy'sFangirl01

My name is Ari

I have no home

And this road I'm on

I walk alone

We are different

We aren't the same

I'm a savage beast

You'll never tame

They have changed me

They gave me this life

I never wanted

To live in strife

He never cared

He only loved you

He never saw

What he put me through

I wish I could melt

My heart of cold

But my soul to the devil

Has long been sold

Let it be known

That I always cared

But now I must

Keep my sharp fangs bared

If I could choose

My destiny

Me with you

Is what it'd be

If I could change

I wish I could

You know the saying

If I could I would

I wish you could see

Who I could become

But I still watch

The rising sun

It reminds me of you

The power you hold

Your bright heart and mind

Things I never told

Physical pain

Emotional hurt

If choosing the better

I'd pick the first

That pain heals

Leaves only a scar

But the other cuts

Straight through your heart

Can't get away

From the chains that bind

Tightening

No escape from my mind

My name is Ari

I have no home

And this road I'm on

I walk alone…
