Laces untied, boots slipped off Shirt unbuttoned and cast aside Belt unbuckled and trousers dropped The day now ended ******* alone Boxers and socks left upon floor The shower relieves the day before For all see you smile and presume of your life None knowing you're alone each night Step out refreshed a towel to your face No conversation alone in your space Dry and ready to climb into bed No lover to hold only cold emptiness Try as you might to say its ok Being alone is never the way For millions of souls share in this state As we find it so hard to find the right one To come home and love when our day is done
