Sad Lonely Man
Dear Jane, I thought I'd write a note
To re-read and from which to quote
You don't ask how I'm getting on
Or how I'm feeling now she's gone
I want so much to be with her
With no options to consider
Will you advise me if you can?
I'm just a sad & lonely man
Dear Jane, I know that you can help
Me feeling sorry for myself
I've downers that I can't describe
But don't take drugs that I'm prescribed
I've done things that would sicken you
To get by when I needed to
I want to change the way I am
Not be a sad & lonely man
Dear Jane, I thought I heard you call
Amongst the echoes in the hall
I thought at last you'd answered me
But perhaps this is not to be
I guess the fault lies in myself
I'm foolish to expect much else
Dear Jane, please forgive if you can
Ramblings of a sad, lonely man
Dear Jane, I thought I'd let you know
That I've just seen the Wendigo
Now that my feet are made of fire
I can achieve all I desire
If you think my soul can be saved
Then call me from beyond the grave
Is this all part of life's great plan?
Signed
Yours,
A sad & lonely man

But what if I told you of my life,

"Emptiness"
Lying here waiting
Thoughts churning in my head
Painstakingly turning
While I am tangled in my bed
Defeat pours over
by B.J. Wilson
Gone
I reach for something no longer there
You have turned and fled
How could you help me
If I cannot help myself?
Weary of the
Corner of the loveseat while the sun sets behind closed blinds
Cigarette burns low
The neighbors phone rings off the hook
While
Alone
All alone in a busy place
With a fake smile upon her face
Her soul once free now cry's so loudly
But you cant tell because
