"Lost and Alone In My Own Home Town"
I feel so very far away from everyone
and everywhere that i have ever loved;
as though the world were spinning away
with time passing I grow old and forgetten
Living my lonely life in the small hometown of mine.
I know it so very well, it is a shame i cannot drive a car
or have a purse of money to buy some pretty things;
and i married a homeless man and eight years later
well we are still married and the turmoil of life grows
and we will hopefully always be together
i feel so far away from my loved and lost ones
and every city street i have ever loved or places to go
I've lost them all, Time has taken them from my hands!
I have grown old and penniless well I have written my heart out
But I tell you this, There is nothing lonelier
Than being alone, penniless and trapped and shunned
in the town that i've lived within for my entire lifetime!
Even though I'm staying in my home in my town....
I feel a million miles away from all that i've lost
all that i've loved, even the stars in the sky
are hidden from me in this cell building complex
I am so trapped and so unloved that i read all
my unloved, unread books of poetry and I just laugh!
So far away i feel from everything I once had,
I've lost everything and everyone, and So I Name This Town
"Memory Memorial", for it is a ghost city abandoned
by everyone but me!
In Jesus' name,
Amen!
