(untitled) The sacred silent solitude In a crowded, noisy room, The petals coloured shades of grey On a flower in full bloom, The icy cold chills to the bone Beneath the burning sun, The world is not as it could be With no "special someone" The jumbled noise and loud dischord Of a brilliant symphony, The mattress cold and hard as stone On the soft bed under me, The simple pleasures I ignore, Don't see though they abound, This world is empty, cold and dark When my love's not around.
