Darkness of My Soul

Why must I walk alone
no one to be with me
and share my life.
Gloom fills my inside 
a frown not a smile .
Ohh to have
to have just one
to share my life.
We can embrace 
this life 
as one.
Walk together not alone
sharing the best of time
and the worst of time .
Sit and giggle 
at a joke 
or to see a sunrise
not alone
but as one.
