Ponder Alone
I don’t know where I’m going…
But I know where I’ve been.
The path ahead is the only answer…
To forget all I’ve known and seen.
I have fallen and can’t get back up…
Screaming out, no one hears my cries.
I’ve Sunken into this black void…
Alone I ponder, and stay for a while.
I don’t think anyone will notice…
They never did when I was there.
No longer will I have to feel…
No longer will I have to care.
I just want to be numb…
I just want to float alone.
I pray with all my heart…
God! Please take me home!
