Alone

Folder: 
innocence

How strange and beautiful

is the feeling of being

the feeling of being alone

Feeling taken from the outside

and put into a home

nobody knowing or stumbling

on to your doorstep

the wind carefully, easing and blowing

until no smiles are left

How sad, how sad and going

going away are the tears

the tears that have become dry with age

and maturity beyond your years

And lonely, bitter it feels

the cold outside your door

Nobody seeing, nobody strolling

or knocking anymore

You were an angel, you were a miser

wandering off in time

but how does it feel, to have nobody caring

to be muted like a mime?

Taken from granted, taken enchanted

everything you thought was dear

How does it feel, to be left stranded

stranded with nothing but age and fear?
