Why? Why does this life feel so hollow Empty on the inside I see the people I hear other voices But not mine It doesn't matter Because I don't Alone Is what I fear Is what I am What I shall be? So it seems Quietly darkened by insignificance No solace in this solitude Nor escape from this unbarred cell I reach out And stop No one is there To take the hand So the heart withers Day by day it dies As a rose kept from the light A forget-me-not, forgotten
