Hours Alone

Hours Alone

No one to talk to not even on the phone

No voices other than my own

Like a long sad tone

The lights are on but no ones home

Hours Alone

As I begin to drift away

Depressing hours alone give me less reason to live another day

Running out of reasons to stay

As everything becomes dull and grey

Always a battle with fate

Darkness devouring me at an increasing rate

Losing myself to an altered state

No one to save me before its too late

In a constant battle with fate

Like an enemy at the gate

Hours alone

I feel like so much times is going to waste

Not working is just not my place

Like I am staring failure right in the face

Wishing there was an easier way but that is just not the case

Hours alone

I can only hope things will work out and I will be back on my feet

Spending hours thinking about you and me

Wondering if my future holds defeat

Wondering what I will do when and if I succeed

At least I no longer try to fill emptiness with greed

No longer in darkness I can now breathe
