An Awakening

by lawrence   Mar 16, 2004


Who am I fooling
Is it anyone I miss
Or is it just a longing
For that loving couple bliss
Many nights I sit alone
Wondering in my bed
Trying to figure out these feelings
Going on inside my head

Loneliness comes a knocking
Every once in awhile
Feeding me that lonely potion
Making me feel like a child
A babe crying for the loving hands
To cradle me in warm embrace
Smother me with loving kisses
Holding me tight, keeping me safe

Now loneliness I ask you
Is it an “M” or an “X” I miss
They’ve been gone for so long
How can I still be feeling this
Silent as it always is
Loneliness never replied
An answer I can’t seem to find
A single tear, I cried

Wake up your bloody idea Lawrence!!!
Are you so blind to see!!!
Who are you expecting to comfort you
Wallowing in your silly self-pity
Climb out from your little hole
And walk towards the light
There’s so much love waiting for you out there
Away from loneliness, take flight!!!

    WOW Lawrence..I loved it...the beginning was so sad..but THEN...the brilliant ending in which you stop the pity train(not making fun!! been on it several times myself!!!!) and go out and make it happen...kick Loneliness out and all that..I love that by the way, the way you've used Lonliness as a person, done that a couplea times myself!!! Da*n woman wont leave me alone lately!!!! Keeps comin back, but I'll keep givin her the boot!!! like a child..feeding me the potion..your analogies are so good...keep em comin!!! great job Lar...Luv Michelle :)
