Alone




Echo.




Alone



Alone.



That is true enough.


I don't like it.....

I want to find happiness. It only comes in packs of two. Who can I share it with?

Not her. Not her. Not her. Not you. Not her. Why not her?

Fill. Dig, and fill again.

Holes so deep. Six feet down.
Holes so deep. Beyond the sound.

Alone. Together. But always alone. Never alone. Never together.

Listen, even now. We are together. You see this. You feel what I feel.

My heart beats. It beats. On and on and on.

Like a drum. Like hummingbird wings. Pulsing and racing.


Slow down. Slow down. Slow Down!!!!!!

There are no brakes. There are no breaks.


Alone. Alone. Alone. We feel like we are forgotten. Strewn aside. Unloved and unwanted.

Sorry for wanting more. Sorry for wanting what I want. Sorry for having a heart. I know that it was hidden for so long. But it is here now. Here. Hear. Hear it, hear it beat.

Sorry for being a constant. Sorry for always changing but never leaving. I will always be here. I will drop anything or anyone for you. Anytime. If you would just call my name. Just say you want me too. I am yours.

Sorry that we are alone.
