Stand

Alone I stand

The rain

Washing my face

The pain Its icy grip tearing at my soul

I'm lost

Alone

Beside this raging sea

The waves consume me

Adrift

I see the sun behind the gloom

Its light no longer my savior, my friend

Alone

I watch life pass me by

A tear stains my face A

nd here I am

I still stand

Alone
