Alone
I have a conflict between me and myself
 It’s been quite inevitable for some time now
 I am damned
 I am utterly alone
 With no one to blame but myself
 
 I walk through the night
 Guarded by shadows
 And only seen by street lights
 The lights are beacons in a black sea
 The only world that I knew
 That I would ever know
 
 And, I, in a trance, sit looking out to the stars
 While I feel that I’m alone, I always was
 For some reason I cant seem to get out of this trance
 And shake off the cold
 
 My face lit up by the moon
 My desire to leave this place was constant
 Am I damned?
 I’ve indicated to you before that I am…
 
 I am not sure why I wake each evening
 I try to lie back down only to be greeted by miserable dreams
 So I look out of my window and stare at the lights that call to me
 And on such clear nights it looked like heaven
 Instead of hell
 
 I have gotten sympathy from other people
 To soon though it was buried deep in my own turmoil
 I have tried to brake free of this state
 But the more I do
 I feel both my hatred and my own weakness more then ever
 
 This brought nothing but a vague longing
 My agony is unbearable
 I’ve been sinking into this darkness
 I am weary of longing
 Tired and alone
 
 So I return to the night
 To the streets
 Where I am at peace
 And the street as always is utterly quite
 I close my eyes
 And feel the cool breeze across my face
 
 Now feeling more desperately alone
 With no one to blame but myself…
