Misery

Once again I'm left alone to wallow in my misery
And the pain doesn't make everything alright
It cuts deeper than even I can remember
And shades my sight more than the darkest night
Trust a word I no longer dare speak
The cruelest of hearts is the one that resides in you
Misery has her company I am a frequent guest
You bring me to her door and laugh as I walk through
I realize there's no one but me I turn to run
The door has closed and silence engulfs my heart
No spark to guide me no fire to warm me
Only time knows how I will handle this new unwanted start
I soon learn to feel a path that is set before me
I struggle step by step until I'm on hands and knees
Hunger and thirst has long ago left my mind
Is there anyone that can sense my cries and pleas
How much longer must I endure this never ending night
The endless wandering has left me a barren shell
I cannot remember if I was ever happy in life
I cannot forget that you delivered me to this hell
That thought is the only reason I must keep moving forward
For I will not let you beat me you will not win
I shall one day remember trust and how to love
See the brightness of the sun and feel her warmth on my skin
I will find the door that brings me out of your misery
Smile and laugh again happiness is the key
She is the one that laid my path
She is the one I seek the woman that set me free
