Attracted by the absence of my laughter
Kept close 'til I opened myself
Terrified by my fond affection
Driven away,
leaving me alone
Shone upon by the mourning light
I found myself - lost and betrayed
No soft voice, no comfort for
me
Solitude was all I could see
Playful youth, you passed me by
Shameful truth, I'm here to die
As my wrist cries for
you
I wonder when I turned to dust
My reverence for you,
Denied my gentle touch
My last joy became my last
sorrow
Burdened by my desire
Ever longed for, ever looked for
Found, but never embraced
Solitude is all I can
see
Solitude is all I can see
