Awake and rise <br />Early morning sighs <br />Another day <br />Another sunrise <br />I comb my hair <br />Brush my teeth <br />Look through the frigde <br />For something to eat <br />I drive to work <br />Cross the brigde <br />Climb the stairs <br />Pass the clerks <br />The pretty girls <br />And the office jerks <br />Sit at my desk <br />All alone <br />Last one to leave <br />Down the stairs <br />To my car <br />Drive back home <br />Pass the bars <br />Pass the clubs <br />Pass the stars <br />Vibrant pubs <br />I lay to rest <br />Up and down <br />Goes my empty chest <br />I hear a sound! <br />Im astound <br />Muffled cries <br />As someone bound <br />I check the kitchen <br />I check the bathroom <br />No ones there <br />No more sound <br />Again it comes! ! <br />I turn around <br />I proceed to check the closets <br />Piled high with dust <br />And rotten boxes <br />Dark filthy closets <br />Empty bottles of wine <br />Piles of broken watches <br />And what do i find <br />But a small pot with a flower <br />Dried and tired <br />With-in the bathroom <br />I water it <br />'I need sun or ill die soon' <br />'No you need the dark you'll love the dark'i whisper <br />'I need love or ill die soon' <br />'No to many times ive been played'i whisper <br />'I need someone or ill die soon' <br />'Quiet they all betray! ! ' <br />I grab my flower <br />And hide him away <br />Back to the closet <br />Behind the boxes <br />Hidden from day <br />No one will hurt him <br />No one can hurt me <br />'But im your soul'he whispers <br />I lock him up <br />'I have no soul'<br /><br />Elias Barcelona<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/empty-and-alone/
