loneliness

sitting on the side
I watch life go by
the smile left a while ago
tears visit too often
in a world full of love
I sit alone, orphoned
when the thunder screams loud
and the wind growls
i hide behind the steady rock
hurt i try so hard to block
shadows of a life once lived
haunt me, testing what is left to give
a song that i used to hum
its tune to me has now been shunned
and alone i stand, un noticed
forgotten, isolated, without been given a notice...
and i try, cling, beg
reminding them of the promises long said
but on deaf ears my pleas fall
and I let go, resigned
wilting are my dreams
forgotten are my screams
lost is my spirit
crushed is my faith
pain is my freind
and loneliness is now my name
