I sing a sad song for the cold, lonely <br />Moments no one will admit to aloud. <br /> <br />I sing a sad song for all of the broken <br />Promises, <br />Wrought by circumstances beyond <br />Anyone's control. <br /> <br />I sing a sad song for the faces pressing <br />Against the window panes in longing. <br /> <br />I sing a sad song for wild anticipation <br />Of days that never come. <br /> <br />I sing a sad song for the telephone <br />That never rings enough. <br /> <br />I sing a sad song for dreams woven of <br />Hopeless illusions. <br /> <br />I sing a sad song for all of those who <br />Waste time, singing sad songs!<br /><br />Dorothy (Alves) Holmes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-sing-a-sad-song/
