The Lonely Man

Long hath he sat in silence withering
A crying heart with no one listening.
Walls cast shadows beneath the moon
And no one sees him within the room

Where wisdoms' seen through haunted eyes
Of a little boy who never cried
In time the boy grows thick and strong
And to the world he raised his arms

But the world cannot bare his sight
So alone he walks the shadows of night
And those who dare to raise a hand
Soon find out he's become a man.

But like the child without a life
He's all alone without a wife
His heart is hardened, his soul contained
He knows not how, a love sustain

So he sits in the shadows silently withering
A lonely soul though the worlds' now listening.

    Do not fear the cold of night ...

    soon we step into warm Light ...

    The wounded soul knows better than anyone else what love is about ... for love does not wound.
