The Harvest

The harvest Alone, inside my head Is my heart truly dead Does it merely slumber In a restless sleep Hoping to be awoken By a love yet to meet In a room with no walls Nowhere to hide The solitude thrashing To kill me inside I want to let go I want to not care Just let It take over My smile a blank stare So tired of fighting To save my weak soul The loneliness winning I've lost all control Could someone save me How could they know My smile just a smokescreen So my pain doesn't show If they could but peer Deep in my eyes Perhaps they would hear My laughs turn to sighs Would they then stop To care how I felt Wrap me in love To make my heart melt Awaken you sad fool That's all just a dream Loneliness...that Is the field you must glean
