HELLO
Is anybody out there,does anybody care?
I’m feeling so alone now, feeling cold and scared.
Once upon a time I was so strong I felt invincible but now not so much.
There are days when my spinning head makes it hard just to get out of bed.
Can anybody hear me or are my words spoken in vain?
I’ve reached out so many times now yet no one ever came.
Is anybody out there, does anybody care?
I’m just reaching for a hand to hold, an ear to hear my story being told.
Broken promises and broken dreams line the path I once strolled.
Where does one turn to when the streets are no longer paved with gold?
Does anybody have an answer,how about an ounce of concern.
It would be nice to just to hear a “How are you doing”?
It might make this dark cloud burst.
I haven’t smiled in so long that if I tried it might hurt but I’m willing to take a chance if someone would smile at me first.
Is anybody out there? Would you even care if I no longer existed?
Maybe I should just disappeared like I was never here.
Would anybody miss me? Would they even shed a tear?
I feel so alone now, I could use a hand to hold.
I’m feeling so cold and scared now that I could use a hug with the strength of a bear.
Is anybody out there? Does anybody care?
Some may say turn to God, but hey it’s not like I haven’t tried.
It’s as though I’ve been forsaken and I don’t even know the reasons why.
I feel like I’m just something in your news feed hoping someone will share.
Hoping somebody will read me, hoping that just somebody will care.
At night I lay and wonder where did it all go wrong?
I thought I had it all figured out but now I’m lost and trying to find my way back home.
Can anybody hear me?
Knock twice if you can feel me. I wait but still there is nothing only the deafening silence of dead air.
Hello.
