Lonely As Never

Lonely as ever, yet alone, he is never. Spending every waking hour surrounded by superficialism, Never reaching the true feeling of existentialism, But always fringing on the edge of self-absortion in the feelings of regret, Recognizing the emotional imbalance, Clearly caused by inabilities; Over-empathetic Under-motivated Underappreciated to a point of hopeless painful feelings of invisibility Meant only to transcend into the inevitable devotion, An unjust loyalty to an emotional tsunami, The wave of feelings crashing into a wall of inner-neglection, Leading to the ultimate display of True Knowledge, Masked by the veil of lies and dangerous philosophies, Under which the dark sorrow within lurks, Waiting for one to stray too close, Waiting for one like me.
