Fears of Loneliness

From beyond the hills And from beyond the mountains There a lay a person by themselves She looks up at the sky A lone tear falls down her face She cries out "Someone please come..." But no one hears her pleas of desperation She breaks down in the grass A few feet away a lake lies there The girl walks there and looks at the lake A reflection looks back at her She yelps in fright as she sees herself Because in the reflection The demons that haunt her are reflected in the lake With the little hope she has She wishes for someone to come Someone to take away the loneliness Someone to give her a hug Or just there presence is enough That's all she needs Before the demons in her get her Before she takes the final step and falls in the abyss of insanity
