Alone
Alone...
Rainfall not anywhere in sight, to harden the heart doesn't feel quite right
In the distance hearing a faint sound of comfort
A pinpoint of hope giving the soul a tease it could deliver a single drop of being triumphant
Only to watch the tail lights not brighten
A moment of terror that loneliness is only to frighten
Praying for the rain to fall to hide the tears of solitude
Shaking my fist with the last bit of attitude
Only to slump down in defeat
With no more energy to even try to compete
How am I to live with all this love in my heart
Still beating as it rests in my chest torn completely apart
Are you coming to save me? I can't feel you through this screen
With forces of torment and shadows not foreseen
I can only witness your beautiful eyes behind this glass
No matter how much my soul reaches for you, I feel it slowing at last. The beats are further apart it seems
Closing my Souls eyes and only seeing you in my dreams
Slower and slower my hearts rhythm stops as I hear a distant sound
Is it me you've come for? Have I finally been found?
Deception of the mind, playing tricks all the time
Dismissing the thought that love would finally show remorse
Only to stop for someone that looked similar to me, of course
Finally someone sees me, as Death sets me free
Thump, Thump is the last thing in this life I fear
Echoing in my head, like eating ice.
The last thing my lonely heart shall hear....
