loneliness

Who knows what this feels like 

the constant emptiness 

the desire to reach out and feel something that isn't there 

how long will i be left to suffer?

each breath a choice

I cried today just like yesterday

the sting of an abandoned heart

the ache of a lonely night 

the force of a breath i'd rather not take

i see them all around me 

happy couples holding hands

the laughter of a child

this loneliness has punctured my heart

i'm bleeding out .. but who will save me?

how do you mask the pain

thats making me feel insane 

i just want to be loved

i just want to be fixed

these walls surround me like a prison i can't escape 

you think i'm strong but i'm far too weak 

you think i have it all together 

but i'm dying at your feet 

one tear at a time this heart becomes a deserted place

I watch the traffic rush by

so many people 

so many lives

surrounded by life 

while dying a slow death of loneliness

no one see's me .. no one really hears me

my own heart has abandoned me 

my own strength has weakened me

i struggle to survive

i feel no life

i dance to make the pain go away 

i dance to forget 

i dance to save what's left of this life 

Jesus, will you save me?
