Cold Water 3-7-03

Alone she sat
With only her pains in mind
Everyday she thought about life 
And the ones she loves
And yet she was alone
There was no one there, she realized
Sadly, the truth kicked in.
She started doubt everything and everyone
Where were they when she needed them?
Alone was good she told herself
And yet even she knew she was lying 
She went to the sink
And splashed her face with cold water
Alone she walked away.
