Lost and alone,

When I asked myself why

A knock at the door

Someone trying to pry

Words fall on deaf ears

Why do I feel the need to lie?

It hits deep, an arrow in the heart

A familiar face to keep my eyes dry

A hug and simple words

Almost enough to cry

Happiness creeps, a thief in the night

Stealing the pain and questions of why

Healing takes time no rushes needed.

Even if it seems hopeless it’s worth a try

I hear myself say these words now

And even if I’m no one, just another guy

They listen and respond

One Lost, alone, and shy

A blooming flower to be as bright as a rose

The pain moves on without a goodbye

It’s okay to remember and miss

But not okay to cry
