I step outside,
listening,
wondering
"Where has everything gone?"
Looking into the distant
I see nothing,
Nothing as they used to be.
Everything is gone.
Everyone astray,
Walking along the wrong path.
Why?
"Why are you changing?"
Listening for a response,
Hearing nothing.
"Are you there?"
Listening again.
Nothing.
Please hear me.
I can't take this.
I'm not heard.
I'm not here.
Everyone is sweeping into a dark abyss.
So where does that leave me?
Right here...
...Alone.
