Hugging loneliness

Hugging loneliness

 

 

It’s not what I said that is keeping me awake;

It's all those words that I just could never say.

I have waited too long to find myself a place

And now time is all out of luck and I am at my grave. 

 

 

Here I stand looking backwards;

Empty spaces, empty Tracey’s…lost for words. 

The words I never said are all I regret.

The love I never found; the love that I left…

Behind my eyes there hides a smile,

But it is deep down inside my soul.

All you hear are the lies,

When I truly confide,

But the truth is all I ever said and now I am too old.

Too old to change, too late to make you believe;

If you cannot see, then please leave. 

 

 

If by now you do not know,

Then go.

Leave me alone,

With my sorrow. 

 

 

I have tried so hard to convince you this is no lie,

But by your side I do not lie.

Through your tears of goodbye,

You cannot see the rivers that I cry. 

 

 

The trail you leave already fades,

With each and every painful day

And all those words I never had the chance to say,

Are lost with me…

 

And I am left alone with my pain.
