I Woke

I woke in the dark,
I didn't know where I was.
I woke and feared
I might be lost.

I woke in the dark,
Feeling empty
I woke and feared
I was left behind.

I woke and cried,
Not knowing what to do.
I woke and cried,
Feeling helpless.

I woke and cried,
I didn't want to feel this way.
I woke and cried,
Alone.

I don't want to wake
When it's dark,
Feeling afraid,
And crying.

I woke,
But it was dark,
And I was afraid,
So I cried,
Helplessly.

I woke and cried,
Cause I was afraid.
If I were to wake this way,
I might not want to wake at all.
