Feeling lonely, not alone
Tell Corey what you thought of this poem or he will cry.
All I know is what I’ve known
Nowhere I’ve lived feels like home
And I’m lonely, not alone
Surrounded and it is compounded
By their voices I am hounded
When they’re done gone I want them near
All I want is to be clear
Clarity is not for me
So what to do to set me free?
Empty questions roll along
With the cadence of her song
Singing and I feel at home
Am not lonely or alone
Though songs, they always have to end
Leaving me with just my friends
When they’re gone I want them near
When she sings, all is clear
My sky is falling
She is calling
Taken to her by a stream
Awoken – it was all a dream
And so I’m lonely and alone
In my bed at so-called home
I close my eyes and try to find her
My perfect smoky-voiced reminder
That I could one day find a smile
Though I’m probably in denial
And her song don’t even exist
Still, to me, it will be missed
