So Sad a Lonely Man

Wondering here and there
with every thought pending
each day and night
I begin to see that light 
of living forever and I see
that light of hope as I watch 
my own life unfolding within

So sad for a lonely man
who know it will come to
an end some day in his life
Only I know when, where, 
and how but refusing to let 
the pain over take what's left 
inside of me (that is good)

I watch the clock ticking along
as I listen to my own heart
beats day and night
Filled with so much emotions
at so sad a time in life only I
know when it will come to an end

I dream and think as you do 
with every thought pending
each day and night I am
living never forgetting
Only I know when, where, 
and how being lonely will end
