Alone
No thoughts in my head, how could that be
said everyone has them except for me.
Silence it seems, always in the air
knowone to talk to and knowone to careof which to hear
Darkness fills every inch of my mind
while searching,hoping,seeking to find
some light, some joy to brighten within
nobody to share with, not even a friend
Alone
Unaware of just how deep it goes
this unwanted feeling of sadness and woe
no where to run and no way to hide
the reality of all that's deep inside
no shoulder to lean on, no listening ear
only my voice of which to hear
no face to share a simple smile
or body to sit and chat a while
Alone
No way to move or take a ride
knowone to wipe the tears you cried
the tv's now your closest friend
watching reruns all over again
the meals that you cook are nolonger fun
your daily seat is dinner for one
so hard to sleep being on your own
even harder to wake when you wake...
Alone
