Alone In Loneliness
The emptiness that fills up this empty space,
Loneliness engraved on my face though my smile depicting a story of happiness so genuine,
These teary eyes can never lie.
My heart can only ever wonder and long for love,
I am not alone yet the space I live in
That I breathe in,
Love in,
Just me in these bare walls.
I am existing in my own presence,
my expectations of others to understand me,
peaked at unreachable heights, alone for that very reason.
Shadowed by my own silhouette,
Leaving me to struggle in darkness as I walk alone in hope to fine the one true light to change my perceptions and ideas of what real is.
Real is not the time spent in but the impact served.
Not phased by betrayal, like a toddler attempting to take their 1st step,
my heart has tripped and fallen and gotten up to try again, one day it shall walk straight up with only bruises and bumps to heal,
that no one but I can feel no one but I can see.
My eyes keep secrets
my soul holds pain
my very being is clings onto a story that my mind can only tell
Yes I am lonely.
