Helping Out Isn't What It Used To Be

These amber colored leaves can’t cover my trail of mistakes

Yet I still walk this walk in hopes of better days, but they always sink down

These friends I have can’t wipe the regret from my heart and mind

Yet I still run to them hoping I will be found

These tears cover my hopes of ever finding my way

I’m don’t feel alive

I can’t feel the wind rush across my face

I can’t feel that helping hand grabbing mine

I guess I’m just a ghost walking

Walking with pain that no one else feels but me

It’s only a shadow to them

A lonely shadow drowning itself in the darkness of its own life

Who can help me now?
