Lights are on, nobody's home...

by Cimara   May 15, 2007


Empty and lost,
scared and alone.
Her lights are on,
but nobody is home.

Lost in a dream,
a world far away.
Confused in this world,
doesn't know to say.

A desire for life, for love.
She desires to feel complete.
To be happy and successful,
to stand on her own two feet.

To live each day with a smile,
treat each day as it's her last.
To be fulfilled and satisfied, so happy,
with no regrets from the past.

To live an exciting life,
is what she so desperately needs.
Without this love and success,
her heart begins to bleed.

But most of all in this world,
this little girl needs a friend.
Someone who will comfort her,
and bring her fear to an end.

To make her decisions,
tell her what is right.
To make her feel special,
to cuddle her oh so tight.

She's begging for your help,
please don't leave her all alone,
because my friend, her lights are on,
but there is nobody home.

    A very good piece indeed. Straight away I was hooked, and my attention didn't once drift, because every line had it's place. The wonderful choice of words were strung together beautifully. A very enjoyable and impressive piece.

    Well, I must say that I thought that this piece was going to be rubbish, but after I read the first stanza, my opinion was completly changed. Just so you know, I always say my true opinion and I always vote what I really think, unlike many others on this site. Anyway, the flow was superb, as was the wording and story itself, alone with the creative rhymes. My favorite stanza has to be the opening one, because it was strong and flowing, with a good rhyme.
