Alone and Lonely
Alone in this world
cruel masochistic world
treacherous, treasonous
My lone soul
Frightened, anxious
Fighting against evil
Demons, Fiends
Ghouls from the past and present
Mine aching heart
Bleeding, yearning
Missing my only love
A deep agonizing love
Let thy sword come
Unleash all thy curses
I will vanquish thee
Send thee to Hades
My soul, My pneuma
Get thee ready
Thine enemies hath come
To steal, to rob you
Of thine good heart
Stand guard mine soul
Against all the world
Alone and lonely
My darling
My life is bitter
My soul has been savaged
For they left me alone
Friendless, solitary
With only memories for company
Memories sweet and sour
They went forever
Gone to their maker
Left me their babe alone
Vulnerable unarmed
With a bleeding heart
Aching for their love
Aching for your love
A deep agonizing yearning
It was that inevitability
That robbed me thus
That left me lonely
With exiguous hope
Little to look forward to
Little to anticipate
I despaired
And was angry at everything
Nature, Life, Humanity
A ripe mind to cultivate
By the demon king Lucifer.
For i was hapless
Alone and lonely
And the fiends came
Hungry bloodthirsty vermin
Screeching happy in anticipation
Joyous and conceited in their minds
Blind and unseeing in their conceit
For my sword hand was ready
I couldn't let you down
no such betrayal from me
no such treachery from my heart
so i stood strong and faithful
Alone and very much lonely
Your love was my armor
Their love my shield
His Angels my guidance
Yet i was alone
Physically very much alone
But for your love,
For their love
For His love....
Alone and lonely
