???

where is everyone?
my friend?strangers?family?
where are you when i need you?
to be right here, next to me?

where are the self-appointed?
so-called guides?angels?guru's?
why aren't they watching over me?
do they have better things to do?

there is no one here
to hear my silent screams
no extraordinary miracle
designed to save me?

there is only my despair
that refuses to abandon me
the only friend i have
one i wish i didnt need

it embraces me gently
while it chokes the life out of me
feeding on my memories
devouring my peace

i watch the brutal onslaught
imprisoned helplessly
as i wait for it to lull me
into an endless sleep...
