Alone



She sits alone

in a lonesome chair

waiting, wishing

for someone to appear

for someone to be there		

to hold her hand

and sing her songs

and be her friend

but no one comes



so she sits some more

in the darkness and gloom

the only one 

in an empty room

and prays for someone

to come for her soon

but no one comes



then finally, she goes to sleep

prays to God her soul to keep

and silently begins to weep

into the darkness of the room

the bottomless pit of dark and gloom

and sobs for someone to save her

from her doom

but no one comes



frantically, she reaches out

hand outstretched

grasping for an arm, a hand

a heart, to save her from the dark

she finds one

rises from her chair

out of the darkness, the deep despair

guided into the light by a helping hand

a loving heart

been there all the time

waiting outside the door



no one comes,

but she goes
