The World Went Away
Today the world went away,
I'm not sure where it's gone.
It left with no final say,
It left many things undone.
The people all rushed into hiding,
To where I don't know.
This horrid emptiness inside me,
I wonder if it shows.
Everyone has disappeared,
And I'm not sure where to.
It's everything I ever feared,
I'm not sure what to do.
I've driven away so many people,
And others left on their own.
I live in this empty world, so feeble,
Completely and utterly alone.
The void that is left behind,
With the feet that flee the scene,
Makes something twist deep inside,
Crushing itself inside of me.
Please take my outstretched hand,
Anyone who remains.
Please help me understand,
How to deal with this pain.
I'm alone once more in the dark,
Why am I still so shocked?
The world is plain, empty and stark,
And my world has seemingly stopped.
Today the world went away,
They all left yet I stayed.
I walk through emptiness with nothing to say,
Hoping someone will find me one day.
I'm not sure where it's gone.
It left with no final say,
It left many things undone.
The people all rushed into hiding,
To where I don't know.
This horrid emptiness inside me,
I wonder if it shows.
Everyone has disappeared,
And I'm not sure where to.
It's everything I ever feared,
I'm not sure what to do.
I've driven away so many people,
And others left on their own.
I live in this empty world, so feeble,
Completely and utterly alone.
The void that is left behind,
With the feet that flee the scene,
Makes something twist deep inside,
Crushing itself inside of me.
Please take my outstretched hand,
Anyone who remains.
Please help me understand,
How to deal with this pain.
I'm alone once more in the dark,
Why am I still so shocked?
The world is plain, empty and stark,
And my world has seemingly stopped.
Today the world went away,
They all left yet I stayed.
I walk through emptiness with nothing to say,
Hoping someone will find me one day.
