Forever Alone

Sitting alone in a room,
Staring at the wall.
I am ready to fall.
What can i do?

Thinking about a haunted past,
Surely these thoughts won't last.
With nothing to my name,
And debts to pay.
Why is it worth living anyway?

With a home that's not a home,
And no friends I am left alone.
With a future that seems empty and lost,
It's just too much of a cost.
To continue onward to a place unknown,
Perhaps i will be a king,
Sitting upon a throne.
Or an outcast left to die alone.

No more thoughts or words spoken,
My heart has seen love but has only been broken.
With no more tears to shed,
Why bother lifting my head.
Only to be beaten down once more,
With no escape,
No exit door.

Seeing faces and knowing names,
But their eyes meet mine,
I only see flames.
Judging, and tormenting,
Pointing and laughing.
No one knows the words they say,
And how just a few can change my day.
Whether its a good job or how are you,
Instead i’m met with silence,
And words too few.

With no hope what shall i do?
No dream,
Nothing to look forward to.
In this place i do not know,
In a bed that is not my own.
And when I leave where shall i go?
Back home,
Where i have no friends,
Only foe?

I'm a man looking for hope,
Seeking love,
And a way to cope.
I'm in a hole that has no end,
Save my life,
And give me a hand.

Out of the dark and into the light,
Starting a new,
And doing it right.
For time marches on and never stops,
Nor shall I,
Until my heart stops.
Till my brain is dead,
And this story ends.

Always look forward,
And always ahead.
