Lonely

No one to keep me company but my shadow
No one to share my unbearable sorrow
I walk with light on one side
But darkness is also just beside
It is tempting to say
"Let me drop it and go away"
But instead I say "No,
It is so damn hard to let go"
And so I walk with my back bent
Knowing no helping hand shall be lent
In my face the wind will blow
But I have not far to go
As I walk I know
There will be spring after snow
