I know you

Last call is calling
As you find yourself alone
Hanging on to distant thoughts
And vacant memories of home
Shadows now surround you
Drowning you in fear
Living lies and losing friends
To waste away your years
I know you
I’ve been you
The thick skin
The loneliness
Never letting anyone in
The mask you wear out those nights
The one that never fits quite right
Led astray by sinking thoughts
Damaged plans and broken hearts
Costly debts that left their mark
And every lie you’ve ever bought
Now love is just a distant thought
A fading picture you’ve long forgot
Turned to winter the ashes did
Simple cries like mighty winds
I know you
I’ve been you
The thick skin
The loneliness
Never letting anyone in
I’ve seen it
I’ve lived it
Just let go
You’ll never miss it
The widow by the sea
The angel spoke to me
The strength I never knew
Not just in me but also you
And that’s when I found god
Not looking down, but all around

| The flow was great. This poem has made me reflect, and almost made cry. |
