Widow's Cry

Widow's Cry

Lord I long for a family again
A family to call my own
It hurts to be alone!
The nights are long and muddle
No one to cuddle
No one to kiss
No one to share my wish
The house is noisy
From the music that blasts from the radio
The voices and the faces that speak and stare
From the t.v. in the empty family room
The tick-tock from the clock on the hard wall
in the hall
Yet I hear SILENCE!Screaming at me!
I'm alone
I'm alone
No One to call my own
I long for someone to talk with
To pray with
To dance with
To cry with
To laugh with
To share intimacy with
To eat with
Lord hear my cry!
