Alone With Fear
I live in a desert of emptiness last to survive
Hoping each day for a small glimpse of light
Two shoes without a soul in them
My hand has no feeling without one to hold
Kisses only touch thin air then disappear
My arms held open with no one to hold
The Christmas tree has wrapped empty boxes
Christmas dinner microwave cooked one dish at a time
Fear I have of being alone slows my heart beat down
Sitting by the phone just needing to hear a voice
A call I received: The last call for lonely hearts
A prerecorded message wanting a fee
