Diary, Stardate 23.56.89

I begged for a friend today...

Again

Loud Whispers

She gulps darkness in futile escape

Needle of emptiness hisses her rape

Nobody wants me. Nobody needs me.

Each dawn she dies in angry retreat


"Somebody wants you. Somebody needs you."


LIAR, BLASPHEMER!

Ripping. Tearing. Swearing. Uncaring.

Discontent waves, needle floods the pain.

She drowns in her gown wrapped in evening frown.


"Somebody wants you. Somebody needs you."


SHUT THEE UP! Dare make me a fool!

Fugitive motives: my enemies will chase!

Her world a toy they wish to destroy.

If nothing I be, nothing I owe.


"Somebody wants you. Somebody needs you."


No one can say, 'That useless whore!'

I wrap myself in my own decor.

Heroine in her marriage trap

Makes amends with stinging strap


"Somebody wants you. Somebody needs you."

Living in yesterday's hope

She votes again for President dope.

Never having sung her song

She blames her woes on a world gone wrong.


"Somebody wants you. Somebody needs you."


Please, oh, please let it be true!

Everything of love will never die.

Approaching from horizon lost

His silhouette in the sunrise sky.


"Somebody wants you. Somebody needs you."


Free me from the lies that bind!

The silence can be so unkind.

Seeing the face to live again:

"Oh," she deflates. "It's only him."
