Lonely But Not Alone...

you may feel like you are alone
hoping you could just come home
like a message in a bottle on the shore
like a penny face down on the floor 
or a raft stuck on the open sea
always remember you have me 

don’t forget the moon sits alone too
keeping a close watch over you
like a bird on a branch’s end
before the snow moves through again
or like the last leaf left on the tree 
always remember you have me 

the sun wakes up alone after the night
but it’s always shining O so bright
saying everything through its silence 
like a lighthouse warns ships of violence
or dove that’s flies around so free
always remember you have me 

a lone flower in a field of grain
and the first falling drop of rain
from a single cloud pushing by
throwing his tears across the sky
or the rainbow you can barely see
always remember you have me
