I sit here wondering what to do now,
I'm rubbing my hand across my brow.
All day I have been crying
My head in the clouds like I'm flying.
I feel so alone and lost
I awoke today to another cold frost.
I cried myself to sleep last night
Holding Shelby oh so tight.
I tossed and turned the whole night through
Feeling alone, so sad and blue.
Little souls visit each night
Stopping with me until morning light.
At times it's fine
But lately it's not.
For they are draining me
Please move on and leave me be.
I need my sleep little ones
I wish you were all my daughters and sons.
I need to be as strong as might
So walk on by me tonight.
Still I sit here and wonder
Hearing many trucks who thunder
Now I look at what I've written,
A dog could do better,
No - a kitten.
Aargh!!!!
