A feeling that guts us at our core. A fear. One that I don’t presently have, but remember vividly.

To feel lonely like the night

Can tear my heart in two

Take from me my hopefulness

No matter what I do.

To be lonely is a fragment 

Of a nightmare that’s not real

But follows like a shadow

And becomes all that I feel.

I feel like a flower

Searching for the sun

With nightime round the clock somehow

What is it that I’ve done?

I just don’t like this corner

I need to free my heart

To believe that love exists for me

Sounds like a good start.
