Alone

A smile from a stranger,
a message on your phone.
Every thought counts when you're feeling alone.

A blue kiss at midnight,
a smoke in the rain.
I'll do what I can to diminish the pain.

A walk in the park,
a drive in the car.
I'll try to escape, but the thoughts won't be far.

A broken open casket,
a flower for your grave.
I tried to stay alive, but I couldn't be saved.
