I have not exactly frequented this part of the village, but I thought I'd post this I found on my computer.. wrote it a while back.
-Untitled-
After a rest too short
Leaving for a week too long
I lie on my bed
With nothing but my sorrow for company

Not a life I’ve chosen
They cast this misery upon me.
I share it with a hundred others.
Yet I am all alone.

They took away all I love
Gave me little in return
They’re taking away my summer
And offering only a dark winter

All I have to hang on to
Is a faint hope of better days
But that hope grows weaker by the minute
My drowned cry for help goes unheard

There is one that can ease me
But we are miles apart
A gentle touch or smile can heal
What a lifetime of misery caused.

Grant this wish
Compensation for my pain
Cut the distance between us
Cut the cord that ties my misfortune to me.
