Loneliness, With Thoughts Of You

Loneliness, With Thoughts of You

Sitting in this empty room,

I mourn the bright, but embrace the gloom.

These thoughts of you within my brain

The only things that keep me sane.

The walls are white, this table brown

I yearn for noise, some tender sound

Silent I sit and alone I write,

Without your love, without your light.

But if I'd ever said a word

Surely you'd have found it absurd;

So quiet am I, you'd never guess

I loved you more than all the rest.

So now I wait and watch the time.

And speak my deepest wish in rhyme.

For otherwise you'd never know.

I let you slip, let you go.
