Michael Edison Poet Ballad

Tears of Loneliness

IN THIS LONELY PIT
I WAS BORN UPON IT THORNS
TO WALLOW IN TEARS OF DEFEAT
NO! I HAVE NO WORLD TO CHERISH MY HORNS
THE SON OF THAT OUTCAST
WHOSE HEART BLEEDS APART
APART TO FLOAT IN HIS TEARS


IN THIS LONELY PIT
I FOUND NO WORLD THAN WALLS
WALLS OF DEPRESSION AND HATE
WALLS THAT EVERYTHING AT ME SPATE
WHAT IS LOVE? IN THIS ITCHING NET
NET THAT SPARK PERILS AND FATE
FATES OF SORROW SO DEEP
DEEP IN THIS PIT
DEEP IN MY TEARS.
