Loneliness

When I was born in the depths of agony, the kin left me When I refused to accept the mindless norms, the success left me When fate played tricks on me, the faith left me When I bowed to the gloom in life, the happiness left me When I turned to the darkness for solace, the shadow left me When I closed my eyes to escape the reality, the imagination left me When I pursued the path of perfection, the passion left me When I failed to find the elusive ego the confidence left me When I succumbed to the promise of glory the morality left me When I waited for the whisper of love, the patience left me when I yielded to the temptations of lust, the integrity left me When I lay to rest at last, the peace left me Oh loneliness! I resent you but love you more, for you are who walked with me through every door and when I embraced you, all animosity left me
