How Much Longer?

by Kendall   Jul 7, 2005


"Are you happy?"
Were the words from no one.
"Are you sad?"
Were the words from her heart.
"How much longer?"
Was the most obvious question
But there was no answer.
"We did all we could"
Came the voices of her friends.
"Why can't I just tell them?"
She asked time and time again.
"How much longer?"
Was still the most obvious question
But the answer still lingered behind.
"Why am I so alone?"
Were the words she cried herself asleep to.
"What's wrong with me?"
The feeling she knew much too well.
"How much longer?"
The question now rising to the surface
Revealing not a hint or two kind words.
"Are you sad?"
Were the words from her heart.
"Are you happy?"
Were the words from no one.
