On my own

by bethany   Apr 1, 2007


Its just frustrating considering that no one realizes
how i feel
considering that i cant even swallow one whole meal
i walk the empty street
listening to how my steps make a quiet beat

i shout your name
and hear the echo in my ears
hoping you could hear me
hoping you could see my silent tears

i imagine you running
running to save me
trying to get by my side
trying to set me free

but i remain locked
inside my soul
hiding from the world
and I'm losing control

I'm afraid of something
but i don't know what
looking for an escape
but the door stays shut

i cant take this any longer
i need to run
take my hand
so i cant grab the gun.

my eyes are darting everywhere
its you i see
and its then i realize
theres no one here but me.

**sorry its so short, i had to go, so i hurried it up.
