When I walk into a room There is no one around When I step outside my door I never hear a sound When I sleep inside my bed I never even dream When I turn on the TV It's blank... or so it seems I am pushed into a corner Left holding the door Always interrupted Trampled on the floor I am existing to survive Persisting to be alive Desiring recognition Detesting my isolation As I drive along the road It's empty as can be As I wander here at home Myself, I only see As I call upon the phone No answer I receive As I shout out to the Lord It’s me… who's not believed Shunned by silent voices I was washed upon a shore Alive for no one else Alone forever and more I existed to survive Persisted to stay alive Desired recognition Detested my isolation I am no longer "I have gone away. The bed is cold and empty. Trees bend their boughs toward the earth. And nighttime birds float as black faces." |

Thanks for the replies, you two.  "I have gone away. The bed is cold and empty. Trees bend their boughs toward the earth. And nighttime birds float as black faces." |

"When I walk into a room There is no one around When I step outside my door I never hear a sound When I sleep inside my bed I never even dream When I turn on the TV It's blank... or so it seems" Sometimes this is a blessing!! Very well written. |
