Alone

Cacophony of sound Breaks through my penetrable wall My mind still reeling From the dreams of the night Leave me be Surely you can see I’m alone, even though not on my own Mundane daily tasks Force me to clear my mind Of the heaven and hell my dreams inspire Knowing there’s no escape To be found while I’m still here I yearn to be happy and free Alive again without the pain Of knowing I’ve lost me and that I’m alone, even though not on my own Reaching out is all I can do But coming up short again and again Breaks me and my resolutions wane Somehow courage must be found To deal with the fact that I’m alone, even though not on my own This is written in Bop format which is not an option to chose from
