The loneliness of the heart
To take the dreary path alone.
No security of a friend
To hold your hand,
To guide your feet,
To cheer you on your way
As you stumble on the dust-covered road.
Melancholic days,
Each morning a struggle to wake,
Tired and gloomy,
No light to see,
No laughter to hear,
The yellowing leaves,
Flutter frailly against
The cold, north wind.
A storm threatens,
The vampire within wishes to rise,
Yet the soul suppresses it.
The chains to freedom!
Slowly, weighing, taking a toil
On this fragile spirit,
Yet to shrug them off,
Would mean,
A life in the dark,
Unacceptable,
Unpermittable,
Ultimately, self –destructive,
So , here I lie in wait,
Like a farmer during the drought,
For a drop of rain,
For a helping hand
Like a little lost puppy,
Cold, wet and hungry
For a sign to the way home.
