Melancholy.

I am a single light
burning in single room
a single bird in flight,
flying towards single gloom...

I am a single hand
reaching for no one there,
a house built upon sand
in the mirrow i stare...

I am Adam without an Eve,
a moon without a sea,
condemned loner without reprieve
seeking a lover for eternity...

I am a voice in the dark
crying out for tenderness,
just a shadow of a man
lost in this wilderness...

I am living to be dying for love,
praying for angel to descend,
my candle is lit for her
to bring loneliness to an end...

Be brave , my boy ,
Reach out your hand
And not -
'for no one there ',
But for HER !
Be brave , my boy !

With good wishes for "bringing loneliness to an end ",
