Another night
lonely I could call it
My heart's in a fight
Not a loved one in sight
My determination is overtaken because of fright
Memories keep me hostage
I think my mind is playing tricks for spite
Despite
I lay in bed
Thinking, reminising
Of things people said
Everything from
'Cherie's such a sweet little girl"
to "Cherie's sick in the head"
I'm worried scared and lonely
And I'd like someone to console me
Lonely is a word too often used
Another abused word is confused
These two words play a major part in my life
So hurt
But fiending to heal
Love will protect me
Love is my shield.
