Seven million people within fifty miles of me, yet I am alone.

Isolated as though I was in the middle of the desert.

I feel so lost, so utterly miserable,

No relief in sight,

My life in a shambles.

Darkness surrounds me at all times.

The pitch black sucks the life out of me.

Depression and desperation set in.

My life feels worthless.

How can I live this way?

Then a beacon of light shines from afar.

Hope for something more.

I long for a place where love may exist.

Your glow entices me to want to leave everything I know.

You seem immeasurably distant, but I still am drawn to you.

One day I will be able to spread my wings.

I will race to that lighthouse.

Time means nothing in the grand scheme of the universe.

We will finally embrace.

And we will know the peace of love.

Alone no more.....
