Just Alone

 

In my life I’ve spent many nights

Just Alone

The children in bed for the night

Just Alone

 No partner, no mate, no husband, no date

Just Alone

No mobile no landline no internet no skype

Just Alone

The silence grows louder and rings in my ears

Just Alone

My eye’s start to blur as I blink back the tears

Just Alone

No chatter no laughter no squabbles no fun

Just Alone

No sharing no caring with that special one

Just Alone

The darkness draws in and you’re trapped for the night

Just Alone
