Alone

Burning inside, cold as ice, emotions drained feelings lost

Head spinning, world turning, can’t keep my feet on the ground

Heart beating, ears pounding, why am I alone

Where is my life, where is my love, what a cruel trick fate has played

My heart aches, too quiet, so alone

I see a glimpse of what the future holds, and then I get excited

My life, my family, my love 

The sun is shining, the birds singing, the trees dancing in the breeze

I look forward to another day, but the anticipation is too much

I want time to speed up, the days to go faster

Until I am with the ones I love
