Alone

by Sway - Scorpio

To have no one hold your hand
When you’re scared.
To come home to a message machine
That’s message-less.
To go to a dance
And stand by yourself against the wall.
To dream about prom
And cry into your pillow.
To need a trusted friend to lean on
And not be able to find one.
To get ready for a date
And idle yourself on the porch two hours later.
To walk down the hall
And not hear anyone call your name. 
To light the candles
And stop the burning with your tears.
To say good-bye to the year
And have no one to say hello with when the New Year comes around.
It all seems so familiar,
 The way you feel when you are alone.
