I turned the TV on…
And then I turned my music up.
Singing at lungs edge
And breathing with my heart beat tears.

It’s just so lonely tonight.
So quiet I can’t take it
Come and tell me I’m all right,
‘Cause I always have to fake it.

Come on, the pain is overwhelming,
I’ve been reading just to spite God…
I can laugh at my existence
I’ve been sobbing with reality.

And tomorrow comes so quick
And each day passes so slow.
I’ve been feeling rather sick.
I just wanted you to know…

That I need someone beside me,
To hold me in their arms…
And to make the silence go away
It’s just too much to face today…
Alone.

- And so it was that time stood still -
     (blink, breathe, stand, fight)

I understand this feeling, Alyssa.
You've written it well.

Hugs to you...

vlraynes,
Thank you for your reply. I think all of us know this a little, don't we? Sad, though. Oh well. Again, thank you  

mystic,
no, thank you!   Not sure how vivid it really is.. but its my night tonight, so its certainly real. Good to meet you by the way, haven't been here much lately, so I missed you're entrance! Take care...

Always, Alyssa
