When Lonely And Silence Embrace.....It's Gonna Be A Long Night!

My self inflected sorrow Begins the countdown to tomorrow Sorting through the maze of yesterday Moments last forever They torture at their pleasure Making sure my heart has hell to pay The clock cuts like a dull knife As it ushers in the midnight Breaking through the silence of the wall I have just one obsession 'To offer my confession The fact that no one's here is all my fault I need someone to listen me to sleep As I talk about the promises..... I didn't keep One who'd love me.. if I'd let her But she couldn't make it better I need someone to listen....me to sleep Someone who'd dare to listen....me to sleep Colab With Carol M.
