Alone


			I'm locked alone inside myself
			Waiting for someone to let me out.
			I kick and scream at the top of my voice,
			But noone seems to hear me shout.


			Why, I ask, do I feel this way
			Lost, alone, and afraid.
			Won't somebody help me out
			What kind of mess have I made.


			Trapped, like an animal in a cage
			Feeling a shower of doubt.
			I lower my head not giving a care
			Oh, won't someone let me out!


			To feel the touch of a warm hand
			And the feel of another against me,
			Is something my heart longs for greatly
			And my eyes are impatient to see.
