It’s Dark, I Cannot See

It’s dark, I cannot see,

Left alone to be;

Friends cannot be found;

By these chains, I am bound.

*****

The world has turned against me,

As I cry upon my knee.

My enemies have mocked,

And my allies they have talked.

*****

They have surely gathered,

To take all I have away.

I seek comforts of the past,

But just like wine it didn’t last.

*****


Oh where is the light,

That used to shine so bright.

Have I been forsaken,

And all I have taken.

*****

Where is the comfort,

And all of the support?

All have left and scattered,

Guess I didn’t matter.

*****

It’s dark, I cannot see,

Lord shine your light on me.
