Waiting

My thoughts are clouded,
Shrouded in a cloak,
I lost my dagger,
I have no hope,
Tortured to think,
Of things lost and gone,
Unaware if I have,
What I need to go on,
The wisdom and courage,
To take that final leap,
Fighting off all urges,
To give in and sleep,
I weep alone,
So no one will hear,
Why bother with them,
They won't see my fear,
I'm just another person,
Lost in the crowd,
No one heeds my plea's,
No matter how loud,
My voice still falls flat,
And I'm lost yet again,
I pray for the day...
When this all finally ends.
