Lonely Night

entry picture

The lonely night is here
I reflect and think fondly of you
Restless melancholy and blue
In the darkness I am utterly lost
Alone and forlorn at a woeful cost
Can't see a future would you believe 
Right here right now I just grieve
The lonely night is here

The lonely night has arrived
As I look up to a star spangled sky
In this moment I wonder why
Fate has dealt it's cruel hand 
And left me in pain broken I stand
Happy times I try to recall with you 
And manage to raise a smile I do
The lonely night has arrived

The lonely night it screams
It is deafening and profound
In the mayhem I don't hear a sound
My broken heart it it beats like hell
Inside a body that is just a shell
Running to stand still it won't last
Treading water and sinking fast 
The lonley night it screams

The lonley night endures
A never ending saga unfazed
My mind enveloped in a misty haze
At the crossroads of despair 
No direction on the road to nowhere
The world was my oyster for sure
For my misery there is no cure
The lonley night  endures

The lonely night is here
No escape from this fear
The lonley night is here
