You are not alone

Melissa Wines 1977 (California)



You feel all alone in,
You're combat zone.
You're darkest hours,
In a world
Unknown.

I want you to know,
I hear your soul moan.
You are not alone.

Standing in front of your grave,
Tattered, worn down, windblown.
Ready to burry your bloodstone,
Torn between the devil,
You know, and the
Devil you don't.

I want you to know,
I hear your soul moan.
You are not alone.

In a world so cold,
With the strongest
Of backbone,
You're heart
Self-sown in a
Zigzag pattern the end,
Unknown.

I want you to know,
I hear your soul moan.
You are not alone.

Nearing this milestone,
Patched, stitched, and
Fully grown.
You walk the cobblestone,
To your
Dark thrown,
Finally home.

I want you to know,
I hear your soul moan.
You are not alone.
You
Are
Not
Alone.
