Everyone cannot be alone
Those who wish to wish to be alone
Wish to die
For loneliness is a dark place
Along the broken road
I am an angel
Not of light, nor of dark
But I am an angel
The avenging angel
Locked in a brutal war
With the void of loneliness
Navigating with the world's forgotten at my side
Along the broken road
I walked through the door
And I found her crying
I went to sit with her
The tears flowed out of her eyes
A waterfall of trapped personality
A bandage was wrapped about her head
Stained red with hour old blood
She could barely move
But she cried
And when you beheld her rich brown eyes
You saw a soul inside
But when you beheld her mind
You saw a brain dead victim
Along the broken road
She needed a friend
Someone to help her
So I stayed
An angel of gray
Combating the loneliness that came
With those stricken by accidents
I stayed with my hand on her shoulder
Watching her soul in her rich brown eyes
Struggle to stay afloat in her muddled mind
But I had to leave her that I may navigate
Along the broken road
Down the hall I opened another door
To a man that stared
At the wall, his eyes blank
He needed a friend he did not want
He wanted for nothing
His soul was gone
Behind his glassy blue eyes
Was a shattered legacy
He had no will, for it had been splintered
Along the broken road
I stood high above the world
And I watched the girl
Not yet a woman, not yet grown
I watched them grimace at each other
The truth in their eyes reflecting the grim horror
Their souls could not take
I flew to the girl and I took her hand in mine
But she had no soul to register the gesture of kindness
Her body breathed but she did not
Her body was a slave to their machines
And their medicines
But she was not
As they cried and turned the machines off
I led the girl
Along the broken road
