"Untitled"
By: Jamie Lauren Wyrick (Sunday, December 19, 1999)

Walking beneath dark shadows of pain and sorrow's,
Gentle words were what I longed to hear,
All I sought was Love, one time,
Just one kiss, and a hug,
And those sweet words whispered softly in my ear.

I sought someone to hold my hand,
To calm the winds that were raging mad.
Every time I saw a glimmer of hope,
My heart and spirit leapt,
Then, again, my dreams were broke.

I didn't want to walk in loneliness,
I never had my own identity,
Not wanting, in the darkness to forever stumble,
To forever grope.
Not feeling happiness,
Not feeling hope.

I never found a place to belong,
Nobody cared.
No one sheds a tear at what has passed.
Instead they seem pleased.
"You knew that if you let me go, I'd forgive,
Soon you'll forget that I used to live."

Now is not the time for sad "Good-bye's",
Though the love I sought, I never found,
No one ever whispered those sweet words,
Those few words that I wanted most,
I so longed, one time, to hear,
Those sweet gentle words, whispered softly in my ear.
