Stacey Brown Poet Rhyme

The Lonely

I behold a woman sitting in her chair,
Looking out her window, longing to share!

I envision, a man submerged in TV,
With nothing to say to his wife or family!

I observe a boy rejected and scared!
To gain a friend, he does what he’s dared!

I relate to the girl, who is looking for love
Giving in, when push comes to shove!

I visit a world full of hate, envy, and strife
While sitting in my office, both morning and night!

I see a screen, on our phones and such
Taking the place of a voice, and a touch!

With an average number of three hundred friends
Can you tell me why, loneliness trends?
