I Sat Alone

I could not think I could not sleep What could I do, Well I could weep. I locked my door I hid away, No sense of time Night or day. For what's the point You had gone, There's nothing left You were the one. I shut the curtains Unplugged the phone, Slumped in my chair And sat, alone.

To write something this simply, this unadorned, yet to make a 'sudden impact' takes a special skill-- congrats on your win in Brian's contest, Gary.
