Losing Myself

Down by the river shore

   All alone, I sit and weep

Darkness clouding my broken mind

   Seeping in, quick and deep

 

Loneliness and misery I befriend

   Do I see a beginning or an end?

Not sure anymore, doubts prevail

   What is this sadness, I couldn't foretell

 

Staring long into the sky

  Darker and darker, clouds flying by

Crying, praying, for a bit of hope

   Watching the last bits of light elope

 

Not a friend in sight

   No one for me to hold tonight

No one to show my hurting self

   No one looking out for me tonight

 

Lost in the darkness, trying to hold on

   Screaming aloud, no one to look upon

Fading slowly, losing out to pain

   Hope someone, someday, remembers my name
