Cold Empty Room

The silence is a lonely friend

Quietness so often offends

In solitude thoughts become my home

Without distraction lost and alone

The phone rings but its never sincere

No one calls, least no one that cares

Night finds me abandoned by sleep

In darkness my mind starts to creep

Thoughts just endlessly race

How did I come to this place?

4am I fade into dreams

Always angry with conflicting themes

Morning taunts me, won’t let me rest

Another day, put to the test

Alone in a cold empty room

Alone in a cold empty room
