Alone

As the web of sleepiness leaves me now. Remembers the time. And alone. As days go by and the seasons change I can only dream. I should have stayed asleep, I'm not alone there. Heart of mine which pumps my loneliness. Stop. Vague thoughts and hopes crushed every time. And the truck shakes my house as it goes by. You should have taken the best of me. That seed of mine, with cold lies dormant. It's comfortable waiting for warmth. And my dreams wait too. Tears provide but the thirst won't give up. We started alone and we die alone. I loved you and your calm. It helped with the end.
