I'M Alone

Can mere words heal my soul? 
Can their counsel cure my sickness
Why does my lips tell to the ears
With no balm to my excruciating plight
I tell and tell again,
They listen and listen again 
As I say with an unseen rivulets of tears from the abyss of my weary heart

Little I know yesterday, 
That here I am alone
That only me bears my cross
No family, no friend
Even samaritans are long dead
No one would come by 
I live alone, and will die alone
