Lo! How I’ve Grown to Be Lonely

Lo! How I’ve grown to be lonely
I waste my breaths in sighs and grief
Misery is my company
Heartbreak is my only belief.

Every time I wake up
I want to collapse in my dreams
Every time I break up
I wish that God could hear my plea.

When I try to make things right
My efforts fall out on me
I am a waste of a life
My timeless tries are nothing.

Every place that I set foot
The room transforms to darkness
And everywhere that my eyes look
Just shows me my worthlessness.

The days are endlessly extending
The night is my only escape
For in the night my heart stops bleeding
And the world turns into my slave.

How I am longing for my fantasy—
A place where I’m loved and valued
But I know it’s only real in my drams
Such a place could never be true.

Lo! How I’ve grown to be lonely
I spend the days begging for something more
How I wish someone could hold me
But the chances of that walked out the door.
