The Night by Gary R. Ferris
Still a mystery, I can’t figure out; Race home from work, Where life is without. ***** I race to see you, And hold you to me; My mind says you’re there, And my heart won’t see. ***** I open the door, It’s still a surprise: You’re not there, And tears fill my eyes. ***** I need someone, Or call on the phone; But nothing breaks the silence, Of these walls made of stone. *****
I punish myself, By refusing to eat: Depression is silent, I hear my heart beat. ***** Where can I go, Or should I stay: Shy to choose, In bed I lay. ***** Time will pass, And the dark sets in; Laying there wishing, I could still touch your skin. ***** Lying there hurting, I wish I could die; Missing you so much, Again I start to cry. *****
Sometimes I wonder, If you even know; The way that I need you, Would you still go. ***** I can’t sleep now, Again a long night; Are you this lonely, Do you share in my fright. *****
