In the midst of thick blackness
Vexingly empty space
Of hollow loneliness
You feel it too
An ache so deep
That all the world can’t fill
A primal cry of the soul
You hear it too
Ever searching for
The elusive sweetness of
A smile just out of reach
You search too
A friend who understands
Is like a oasis in a parched
And uninhabited desert
You understand
You hear my silent cries
You see my invisible tears
You feel the ache of my soul
And you comfort me my friend
