"I Am Alone"

I am alone with no way out

my tears are falling to the ground.

They carry sorrow in their wake,

they carry pain I cannot take.

The sky is gray, gray as my soul.

The sun will shine on it no more.

Forever dark my life will be,

I long for sleep eternally.

Oh how the wind so cool and clean,

moves through the trees with touch unseen,

I hear a cry from far away,

I only wish that I could stay.

But the sky grows darker and I fear,

eternal sleep is growing near.

There is no pain in leaving this place.

I do not mind my fall from grace.

The garden waits for me I know,

It is the place I wish to go.

I am alone, no one is here.

No one to see my falling tears.

I cry for you, I cry for me,

But soon I'll sleep eternally.
