Helpless

All alone again,
drowning in my tears.
Living in darkness,
dwelling in my fears.
Only the test of time can save me now.

Dreams of love come and haunt me,
Thoughts of friendship come and taunt me.
Why am I here all by myself?

Opportunity knocks on the door -
Here I am chained to the floor.
What am I to do?

The blue bird of happiness is here to stay,
but something stands in the way -
Does anyone have a clue?

Love is on my doorstep -
How do I let him in?
Pain is just a fore step.
I can never win.
