Loneliness

It does rattle the Bone 
To be oddly alone 
And one makes prone 
To fingering one’s phone:
The seed of solitude sown 
And fruit of boredom grown, 
Life is a hollow cone;
One like a defaulter over a loan; 
In ears a loud insisting drone 
Of an unseen plane being flown…
 
Loneliness reaches the bones 
And speaks in our moans.
