Aimless without direction
My heart cries out with sorrow
My hopes and dreams all vanished
No promises of tomorrow
Left with only a memory
That can never fade away
Abandoned without discretion
As I live from day to day
The future holds no meaning
As I count each day the same
My loving arms now empty
Without a love to claim
I dare not look for reason
But the bitterness fills my soul
A pain without consolement
That none should ever know
Left with only pictures
That beckon for my smile
Frozen moments in time
That harbor my denial
Silence fills the air I breathe
Not wanting to exhale
My soul now filled with echos
In a lost and empty shell
I struggle each day to survive
As my heart becomes defiled
A loss without redemption
For one who's lost a child
