Loneliness

Loneliness.
No one thinks much of it,
But we all feel it.

At least once,
When there is no one to depend upon.
When all we have is ourselves.

We are all lonely.
We may not show it,
But we all feel it.

A dark corner,
Sitting alone by yourself.
The shadows closing in on you and you wish you had a friend.

When you need help
You feel stranded and defenseless.
Without anyone by you.

So there sits the lonely child
In the dark corner
Where no one will ever see you there…

Loneliness is an empty feeling
In the pit of your heart
And you feel like you’re going to cry.

The sound of friends chatting,
Running and thumping their feet along the ground
As you just stand there, lonely.
