Hopeless

When night falls
the suns last rays are too soon forgotten
and the temperature drops
just like my heartbeat

Smiles quickly turn into tears 
unspoken words and broken promises
the streets are almost as empty as I am 

Try to drown out everything but the sound of the rain
loneliness is my only real best friend
my thoughts are darker than the night sky
and I wonder if I'm still alive 

Cut my arms but I still can't feel
maybe reality is the dream 
dead but breathing
I'm the ghost of the person I used to be

Wrapped in a blanket of sadness 
my tears have become all too familiar
the rain sings me a lullaby
and I pray to never wake up again under this long dead sky

Awesome! The imagery you've managed to create really invokes the desolate feeling found within the lonely streets the narrator is forced to tread. It's almost like I walked the same streets and felt/heard the same raindrops as I read this.
