My Life

My Life	

My heart has heard the song.
My dreams have been.
I see the day through someone else's heart.
The days drag along.
Each day my eyes grow dimmer.
Life has become somewhat of a dream.
People seem to go along with out a care.
I pray, I work, I live alone.
 I don't feel the life.
The life that should have been. 
My mind can't seem to sing the song.
I heard from my heart for so long.
What has made this life so strange?
Nothing can stop the pain.
My heart has heard the song.
