Plea For a Listening Ear

(This was orginaly a song I wrote)

Ive been
Falling asleep
With your hands wrapped
Around my throat
And its been going on
For a long time

Ive been
Pacing the darkness
Waiting for glimpses of light
And its been going on
For a long time

Ive been
Walking through oceans
Waiting for
The waves to swollow me whole
And its been going on
For a long time

Ive been
Waiting for rain
In the dessert
Of hopeless survivors
And its been going on
For a long time

Keep me company
Comfort my soul
Tell me
That love
Is not a lost cause
Because Ive believed
In beauty for ashes
But all I've got is ashes
And I'm waiting for an exchange
And it's been going on
For a long time

Take this hopeless heart
And peice together
The futures
That could have been
That keep me up
Walking the pages
Of my darkest dreams
Because all I can do
Is fight to stay awake
And its been going on
For a long time


Hold me.
