Alone in a crowd

Alone in last nights darkness
I take inventory of whats left of my mind
I look inside of myself an listening for a conscience
knowing damn well that nothing comes from indifference
but indifferent is how I feel

 

Here in the dark I sit thinking
should the sun not come up in the morning
it would bother me not
there was a time when I never knew what it was 
to be alone

 

Now the silence tears it's way to my heart
love was supposed to be eternal or at least
till death do we part
with a sadness I carry deep inside my heart
I have all but disposed of the dreams I once held 
to so tightly 

 

Memories of a love from the past they haunt Me 
from deep inside
buried alive in a world of constant sorrow
I have reached out a thousand times for a hand to pull me
out of the darkness
someone to show me the way to the light

I hide behind these fridge'd eyes

in a bitter place built out of broken dream's
an out right lie's

 

My conviction on life is to take it in small doses
one lonely night at a time
never again will I listen to the softly whispered
words in my ear ...I love you
without thinking is this just another pretty face
with the same old lie

 

I do not believe hell is all fire an brimstone
hell is being cold an alone while the sun is shining
a place where people are smiling for no reason
an no one see's you standing alone in the crowd

This is so deep.. so penetratingly full of sadness.. sorrow.. and pain.. Unfortunately this has been how I have been feeling for weeks.. but I threw together words that I could not really fully push out.. here in your creativity and beautiful mind.. you did just that. I must say that I am so sorry you are feeling this way.. I know the pain and wish it not on anyone. These are so deep..
Especially,

"I have reached out a thousand times for
a hand to pull me out from the darkness
to show me the way to the light
I hide behind these fridge'd eyes
in a bitter place built out of broken dream's
an out right lie's"

And

"I do not believe hell is all fire an brimstone
hell is being cold an alone while the sun is shining
people are smiling an no one see's you standing in the crowd"

Writing is my sanctuary.. my place of freedom.. I hope that you find peace somewhere as you get it out.. Hugs my friend..
