Walking down a lonely road <br />The only one I’ve known <br />For so many days in a row <br />Feeling the wind’s have blown <br />The next obstacle in my way <br />So that I am sentenced to stay <br /> <br />Tell me, how to get out <br />Of this british comedy <br />Tell me, how to find <br />A place that isn’t dark <br /> <br />Finding a wall of a thousand bricks <br />That can’t be damaged by my tricks <br />Is this the wall guarding your heart <br />Making me cry and desperately try <br />To find the one stone that isn’t too hard <br />For me to break and make my tears dry <br /> <br />Tell me, where you are <br />In this senseless game <br />Tell me, where to go <br />In order to feel whole <br /> <br />Sitting in this darkened, lonely room <br />That has been my home the last few weeks <br />Waiting for the one relieving call <br />That sweeps the pain like one big broom <br />Away from the lifeless, frozen creeks <br />That have run through my soul since last fall <br /> <br />Tell me, why I am <br />Waiting just for you <br />Tell me, why you are <br />Too busy to respond <br /> <br />Running down this lonely, frozen road <br />In order to be faster than the damned winds <br />Carrying the next obstacle so broad <br />That it bares my way and kills my wings <br />That I can not fight for you <br />Any more than I already do <br /> <br />Tell me, what you have done <br />To make me feel like that <br />Tell me, what I am about to do <br />Because I don’t know anymore<br /><br />Michael Saurer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tell-me-51/
