Injured Pigeon

I shiver from the cold
while  my blood boils hot
I feel as if I'm an injured pigeon
looking for food in an empty
parking lot

Lost in the abyss that I call home
this feeling is what's comfortable
all that I've ever known.

I turn to wood as I call you up
on the phone
I get no where, only a lost signal
which reminds me that I'll forever be alone.
