A World of Pain

In a world full of pain, I feel so alone, Now shadows form where silence has grown. A gaping void to fill this space, These thoughts I have, I can't misplace. It is four in the morning, as I lie here in bed. Manifesting these fears that go around in my head. I am the judge and the jury, in my own inquest. A pondering conviction that has me depressed. I feel lost in the darkness, where hope starts to fade. In the stillness of night, decisions are made. A ticking clock echoes. It's a sound of despair, Each tick is a reminder that nobody's there! This loneliness clings, on this dark winter's night, As my breath hits the air and my chest it feels tight. I long for the warmth of that someone to hold, In the cold of the night where dark shadows unfold. I remember the time I was wrapped in your love. Like my heart is being held in the hands of a dove. The isolation i feel, it reminds me again. For in your arms i found solace, in this world full of pain.
