Living???

Living in darkness...
Surrounded by fear...
People all around me...
None I feel are near...

Living without purpose...
Waking to no one...
Feeling the emptiness...
Memories there are some...

Living day by day...
Wishing someone would stop in...
Make sure I’m alive...
Even to make you smile once they arrive...

Living in purpose without purpose...
Day by day...
Is easy to make me think...
My life is a ship about to sink...
