THE LONELY ONE

Full of spirit and vigor The Lonely One is
Greets all with a smile and latches on
Becomes lasting friends within a moment
The seven connecting hues know the golden light

Days are filled with an excited voice
Conversation rolls through time at ease
Dreams are laid out on a sleeve
Be here to witness the new light within

The stars start to shape The Lonely One’s days
No attention for those fragments that do not obey
The need for more and more cannot be given
The Lonely One lives in his own cave

Many arms start to reach out
Grasping at shadows as they pass by
Love me and you will be rewarded with me
Shouting to the world a false image

Chaos is The Lonely One’s best friend
No wrong by others can be corrected, always the end
False friends are the only joy
Truth flies from one who believes and only pain is returned

Walking what he believes is too dark
Anger is the gear that gets caught
The need for more and more cannot be given
The Lone One lives in his own cave

Day after day new turmoil is created
The Lonely One drowns in one tiny drop
Echos are fierce and the self wins over
Everyone else must feel his pain and be blamed

Knots are cut as they are no longer needed
A new love each cycle is the wanted hope
Help! Help! is screamed and becomes void
An empty spirit has no voice and cannot hear

Ones and zeroes show a new life that is not true
Blocks are now the gift that come with no warning
The ego breathes fire and gives life to lies
The real move away, it is their only choice

Confusion knows the game will continue
The Lonely One wants love but cannot find it within
The need for more and more cannot be given
The Lonely One lives in his own cave

He screams and damns his own soul with each smile
He wants his jar filled with a constant touch
The crow is the only who sees his eyes
He will never believe the mirror he talks to

There is one who will not walk away
The same life was lived and stays within the night
Just believe in the dream placed on the sleeve
Push away the stars and read your own light

Showing up when lost will not be required
Darkness will be the biggest lesson
The need for more and more cannot be given
The Lonely One lives in his own cave
