Alone Tonight

Alone Tonight Hi there, how you been? I hope you're doing alright. I'm sorry it's so late I feel so alone tonight. Since you left a lot has changed. The plants they have all died. I gave them too much water from all the tears I cried. The radio don't work no more I think I did something wrong. Trying to get close to it last time it played our song. I keep the shades pulled down, I don't want the world to see. That you don't live here anymore and what's become of me. I quit drinking coffee and watching the sun rise. I quit almost everything when I quit looking in your eyes. I lost the job I used to love I didn't like it there no more. Nothing here is like it was when you were here before. My friends have given up on me since I dropped out of sight. I try not to think about it but I feel so alone tonight. When you get this message I just wanted you to know. That I still think about you. Well I guess I better go. Edwin C Hofert
