All I Have

All I Have

All I have is time
And an empty exsitence
To occupy my mind

All I have are empty spaces
Lining the walls with a few chosen faces

Will I ever be
Anything
But lonely

Will I ever feel loved again
Like the morning sun shining my face
Or will I die alone
In my own dark and cold embrace

Will I ever silence the noise in my head
Can I ever escape that screaming
Will I ever speak out loud again
As if I'm talking to another human being

Is it worth hoping that I'll find a friend
Is it worth waiting to see the outcome in the end
Or should I never open my eyes so I can't see
That the only thing I'll ever have is me

In the words of JF "ask not if you'll be loved but if you will get the chance to love again". Nice work ecm the sad thing is that there are a million people with the same frame of mind...imagine if we all met in a field somewhere with the sun shining and.....oh well!!! nice thought

Thank you, I wrote it for those millions to find for themselves, there is "only me" in which you must first love yourself to love another to in turn be loved back, it's not so much about me as it is the friends in my life. Where would you like to see it channeled to Rob? I could put forth the effort if I had a direction
