I am fighting the battle of a loser
I am singing the outcry of the defeated
I am mumbling the words of the dumb
I am crying the tears of the heartless
I am gasping for the last breath of air
I am feeling the pain of the dead
I am dreading the moment of solitudeness
I am treading the path of a loner
I am groaning with the pain of being alone
I am living with the hope of a believer
I am reliving the emotions of a widow
I am burning with the thirst of belonging
I am recapping the reality of being on my own
I am yearning for the days when emotion lived
I am longing for the turmoils of ecstasy
I am struggling with the paradox of relationships
I am missing the sense of feeling
I am mourning the death of love
I am singing the outcry of the defeated
I am mumbling the words of the dumb
I am crying the tears of the heartless
I am gasping for the last breath of air
I am feeling the pain of the dead
I am dreading the moment of solitudeness
I am treading the path of a loner
I am groaning with the pain of being alone
I am living with the hope of a believer
I am reliving the emotions of a widow
I am burning with the thirst of belonging
I am recapping the reality of being on my own
I am yearning for the days when emotion lived
I am longing for the turmoils of ecstasy
I am struggling with the paradox of relationships
I am missing the sense of feeling
I am mourning the death of love
