Loneliness

The years of solitude, Oh! Eternally new,
With none to be with, save the shadow you own,
What you hear, is what you get,
A throbbing pain in a weary heart,
Loneliness reigns, we cry too harsh!

Oh sorrow! That gentle sorrow, oh no!
It smoothly creeps deep down your soul,
Crumbling your happiness, you’ve stored in joy,
Darkening your pain, you’ve tried to let go…
Loneliness reigns, you cry too harsh!

Motions jaywalk, heart beats fast in pain,
With mind to a distant land, eyes, distract itself to a horizon far,
Far away, we ere an escape,
Wish to retreat, yet pain stands in our way,
For loneliness reigns, we cry too harsh!

“Stop! Oh! Please!”
“Please stop!” I scream,
Hear my pain, for it haunts me down,
A throbbing pain in a weary heart,
Loneliness reigns, I cry too harsh!
