Just a little thing i wrote... |
I weep all alone, To the heavens above. Praying to God to forgive me a sinner in love. I am stalked By ghosts of my past And I pray, oh how I pray, That this life will not last. I kneel to the ground, My head buried in my hands, As I weep silent tears, As numerous as the sands. I am the nothing, O! my heart! My heart within my chest, I can feel it being torn in two, My sobbing heart within my breast. As I look o'er the world, I see my sisters and my brothers, And while I stand with none, They are surrounded by others. I raise my eyes to the skies To see the birds fly together overhead. I look to the earth to see That no one is alone, not even the dead. For while in their graves they lie, Their spirits roam in prison or paradise. I see myself in the mirror and see That I am no more than a grain of rice. Once, I had someone. Once, upon a time. To be with her was heaven, But she was taken by the Divine. And no I am left with no one, No one to call mine. But as I look o'er this lake, And the moon therein that shines, I can see that I am not the only one Who's only companion is time. But no... The horizon draws my gaze, As the sun peers on the Earth, And I am left amazed, That I am so alone. I sit down, Beneath a willow tree, As ancient and proud, As one could ever be. For this, this weeping willow, Had borne sorrow and pain, Had been through everything, From death to rain. And so its branches reach ever To the ground, Always ever weeping, With ne'er a sound. So here I sit, With a companion in grief. And together we beg To our Creator for silent relief. But in time all things must pass, And so it was with my friend; He met a silent, And a sad sad end. He looked at me once, And down drooped his face, And then he was gone, Saved by everlasting grace. And now, I am alone again, With no companion but time. Oh, my Father in Heaven! Let my sins no longer be mine! |
