NOW ALONE

PLEASE LIFT ME ENOUGH TO LEVER MYSELF

UNDER THE STRAIN PUSHING AGAINST ME

THE STRESS IS OVERWHELMING

LOSE THE EMPTY FEELING HELD IN MY MIDDLE,

FOLLOWING AN INDULGENT MEAL

STILL NO COMFORT

SHALLOWEST OF TUNES

HOLD THE DEEPEST OF MEANINGS

MEMORIES CROWD ANY PEACE

I REACH OUT DESPERATELY,

AND SWIPE AT NOTHING

HOPE WANES

BLANK STARES TO NOWHERE,

SEARCHING FOR A WHISPER

SILENCE SCREAMS TO ME

QUIET RAGE AT THE DARKNESS

THAT SETS AS A FOG ON MY SOUL

DIMMING SPARKS OF HOPE

UNCONSCIOUS WANDERING,

BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND  MADNESS

SANITY FOLDS INTO ITS SELF

CHAOS GAINS CONTROL,

I HAVE NONE

ALONE
