Cold house.

by BlueDreams   Aug 10, 2007


I'm depressed and sad
To be home I should be glad
But no, it's empty and cold
No one to hold

Just to have someone to sit and speak
Friends and companionship I seek
All I hear is the wind and the rain
All I feel is ongoing pain

Absolutely alone
Not even a sound from the phone
Oh to pour out my emotions maybe shed a tear
But there is no one to hear

Just to have someone, who I can hold
Before it is too late
I have me, myself and I
We can't help each other, we just sit and cry

There is no point no direction
With nothing or no one to expel my affection
I sat and began to write
Here comes the sun there goes the night

After the darkness turns to light
Must find a way to continue the fight
The house is cold and getting small
I'll just wait for the reaper to call

Being alone, loneliness I hate
I crave companionship a mate
Another lonely day to face
better keep the feelings in place

Not wanting to cause sorrow or pain
I find life to be a total drain
My lowest ebb, I seem to be
No light at the end of the tunnel can I see

What to do, where to go
Without letting emotions show
Do the dishes, bake a pie
Just trying to find a way to fly

Failed yet again
Still tied in knots, in pain
I my head is confused commotion
Have to let out this emotion

I try all I know to clear my mind
No answer do I find
Out of the house go for a walk
Still I find no one, to whom I can talk

Depression is turning into rage
Go home lock myself in the cage
Get the bottle, my friend
It will be here until the end

Helps my spirits grow
But not the answer I know
All hope is gone
But I must go on

The sadness again did show
Not even helped by the heater glow
I don't know what I have done that is so wrong
so bad, I'm depressed and sad.

    This definitely tears at the heart. Life can bring us much pain and sorrow, but we need to go on cause we are strong, but first take the time you need to heal yourself and then you'll be able to kick life in the butt once more. And always remember, you have many friends on this site and elsewhere on the internet who are willing to lend an ear and listen, you are never truly alone. Take care my sweet friend and I do hope things get better soon. Smiles, hugs and love, Angela

    What a sad piece. Lonliness is such a painul thing to live with.

    Absolutely alone
    Not even a sound from the phone
    Oh to pour out my emotions maybe shed a tear
    But there is no one to hear

    These lines really touched my soul. If only the walls could talk.
    Take care my friend.
