All Alone

(4/18/13) I sit at home with nothing to do, I ‘m all alone and feeling blue Where did the time go? That it went so fast! I was looking at the future and now it’s my past. I chose to ignore love because I felt I had time. Why oh why? Was I so blind! Now I’m all alone with my heart in my hand With no one beside me who could understand. No one really wants to be on their own And in their face it is shown! I look ahead to what the future may bring But all I see is pain and misery. No one to share the comfort of my bed This is something that I now dread. No one to converse with, or to share a meal No one can see what I feel. I’m getting older and the walls are closing in Living this life is a downright sin. I prop the pillow under my head And wonder if in the morning they’ll find me dead? I’m in no position to criticize or throw stones When I’m in this house all alone. It gets harder as I get older telling some woman I want to hold her! Now I have to search for someone who will care And with me their life they’ll share. So don’t do what I had done Being alone isn’t any fun © L . RAMS
