Hugging Loneliness

Hugging loneliness It’s not what I said that is keeping me awake; It's all those words that I just could never say. I have waited too long to find myself a place And now time is all out of luck and I am at my grave. Here I stand looking backwards; Empty spaces, empty Tracey’s…lost for words. The words I never said are all I regret. The love I never found; the love that I left… Behind my eyes there hides a smile, But it is deep down inside my soul. All you hear are the lies, When I truly confide, But the truth is all I ever said and now I am too old. Too old to change, too late to make you believe; If you cannot see, then please leave. If by now you do not know, Then go. Leave me alone, With my sorrow. I have tried so hard to convince you this is no lie, But by your side I do not lie. Through your tears of goodbye, You cannot see the rivers that I cry. The trail you leave already fades, With each and every painful day And all those words I never had the chance to say, Are lost with me… And I am left alone with my pain. (C)2017 Aa Harvey.
