"I Sit Alone"
Here on top of this picnic table, I sit alone just like I always do. In almost pitch blackness, the only thing that cut through it is the light at the end of the parking lot and the light from the power station across the river. I sit here alone dreaming of the girl of my dreams being between my arms, whispering sweet words like how much she loves me.
But no, just the wind blowing across the river to my ears.
I can hear the barges and trains blow their horns in unison, like some opus to a lost orchestra.
I sit here in the dark and the bluffs with the Piasa (Piesaw) Bird painted on it behind me.
Like an audience waiting for something to happen, but sadly disappointed.
Just me here alone again thinking how much longer will I be alone.
I feel like forever is a long time.
Just me and my thoughts again.
Not a show or a smile to see, it's just me here alone again. Sorry
