This is about one of my worst fears... being alone.
Tearing, tearing, tearing,
Tearing at my soul!
Ripping, ripping, ripping,
Ripping at my heart!
Threshing, threshing, threshing,
Threshing at my life!
Painfully resilient.
Horribly profound.
Terribly horrific,
Clashing against my mind,
Relentless agony,
Hurt beyond despair.
Despairingly relentless,
Tidal wave of sorrows,
Tide of sorrows manifest!
Alone, Alone, Alone,
I feel so alone,
Tormented by my feelings,
Embraced by wounds,
Caressed by bondage,
Love's painful melancholy.
Hurt beyond despair.
Courage now fleeting.
Weeping without tears,
No shoulder to cry on,
No ear to hear,
No lips to offer comfort,
No comfort before me seen,
Painfulness,
Loneliness,
Tearing me apart.
Love burning,
Embers of emptiness.
Love without a lover,
Alone, Alone, Alone,
Painfully alone.
A single dimming light,
In a world of blackness,
Searching vainly,
Waiting strangely,
Hoping against hope.
Prayers unanswered,
I am still alone.
