Lonely
Death is upon us it follows near.
Chasing looking for a brake
Falling we are alone. We go
Consumes our soul just as we speak.
Pain is no longer.
Life has begun.
Our soul floating away.
Finding peace if we let it!
Agony is too deep.
Waiting to try our new life.
Alone we still pass others.
Deep in a grave we lie.
Only to devour our soul.
Climbing to a higher level.
Held down and only given sorrow.
Breaking our hopes we run to hit a wall.
Escaping our world we all know.
Taken to a place not like ours.
Suffering to eternity.
Only to think we have achieved.
Always lonely will I be.
Waiting and hoping.
Someday to be filled with life
Having one to share
A floating being is all I’m able
Roaming the earth
Looking for a lost love
One to hold and care
Hardened hearts are near
Opening them I warm inside
Cold lying still no response
Pushed away I take my self
My soul bleeding deep
Heart has withered only to reap
Pain and anguish is all allowed
No light in sight I’m too proud
Release my pain floating away
To relinquish my soul set it free!
My sorrow has lifted my own is near
Wanting to be free and painless
Take my heart and toss it away
Only able to cry
Hardened to the touch it waits to be loved
Waiting for someone to care
Always end up here
Depressed and lonely
Drawn and without care
Pain runs to deep
Burning and scaring long and hard!
Some to stay forever
Never letting me awake
Keeping me down dragging my head
Someday may it lift!
I have friends who care!
I’m the one at fault for it is I!
If I can’t care for me, where will I be?
Lonely at last day in and out
Why do I try same old thing
Maybe? One day it will happen!
For now I remain!
