Without No One
me...
i am seventeen almost eighteen
almost grown
not a baby anymore
only wishing i was
not ready for whats to come
i'm afraid i'll fail
for all else i have
no reasurrance from anyone
i'm doing this on my own
with no one here to help me
daddy miles away
not caring, i suppose, what becomes
of me
mother too blind
of my fears to help
i'll be all alone out there
inside my head
i have no one
no shoulder
no ear
only the tears that creep up upon me
late at night
soon i will not even have them
for they will have dried up
after so much weeping
then i'll have no one
i'll be alone without
no one
