Withdrawn

I hear a whisper in the cold lonely night I am watching over you, don’t lie consumed in fright I want so to believe I am not in this alone I shiver as emptiness seeps through to the bone Hiding behind locked door shutting out the world Twisted thought envelopes as loneliness unfurled A force I do not know caress my bleeding heart Mind easing back to reality gives a new start From the depth of sorrow and loneliness I long for something to end this helplessness Desire for peace spawns ideas to end it all Fear of consequence holds me from the fall Maybe a new day will bring sweet release If only for a moment might bring a treasured peace
