cigarette burning
there's nothing to distract me.
the night, it remains all mine.

parnoid by the slightest sound,
a monster from the woods,
but mother earth, the heavens above
protect me with a blanket of their stars.

nothing seems to fit anymore,
but why is it i find myself telling you all this?
courage- to pick up the phone
no answer when i call, for you're all i really need.

so alone i sit, smothering myself in my thoughts,
lungs filling up, eyes glazing over
a slight wobble to my step.
my body will not rest.

skin changing colors, grown up too fast
too wise beyond my years.
an escape, a release for all of my needs, screaming
DON"T LEAVE ME ALONE TONIGHT!
