Alone in a crowded home

Silence grips me from within
spreads through my hollow soul
Darkness rejoices unabashed
rips up my heart,leaves an unfading hole

Those silent screams, those twisted dreams
Do you not see them in my eyes?
Have you now turned a stranger
or has it always been lies?

Lost at sea, no sign of shore
sneering at me, O' ghosts of my past.
If only you could bring to me
a glimpse, a touch, a smile perhaps,
Anything that would help me last....
