MY LONELINESS...

IN A DARKENED ROOM
I TURNED AROUND
AND FOUND YOU STANDING BEHIND ME.
UNDESIRABLE, YET OMNIPRESENT
IT WAS YOU, MY LONELINESS.

YOU FIND YOUR WAY
THROUGH WEBS AND CHAINS
OF IMMENSELY CROWDED PATHS
TO REMIND ME , I AM NOT ALONE
YOU ARE THERE WITH ME, ALWAYS
MY LONELINESS!

ALONE YOU ROB ME OFF THE GLEEFUL RAY
AND SET ME UNDER A GLOOMY DOME.
STILL YOU BE A STERN COMPANION
AND LET ME NOT BE ALONE
O YOU, MY LONELINESS!

TILL THE TETHER END OF LIFE
I HAD NO ONE BUT YOU.
FATES CARVED MY STEPS SO HIGH
NO ONE DID REACH ME BUT YOU.
EVEN NOW WHEN I LAY UNDER THE GREEN WORLD,
I AM STILL ACCOMPANIED BY YOU-
YES YOU, MY DEAR LONELINESS!

  1. i honestly loved it....
    but... why so negative... ?
    Write positive poems... positive stuff attracts positiveness into life and in a way, will help your loneliness disappear...
