Loneliness; the unwelcomed guest

Loneliness, the unwelcomed guest that cannot be chased

It showers us with plaguing feels;

In between nowhere, disconnected,

Alone in my confusion, no one understands me,

the familiar feels far away, no one sees or hears  me.

 

 

Flaws suddenly taste sweet,

“Our shortcomings “ our escape.

It’s laughable right ?

It quietly creeps in like a ghost,

the guilty pleasures , what we desire the most,

We think can kill it right?

To fill the void, to avoid the dark,

They promise to get me out of the dark ,

Promise peace I couldn’t find.

 

 

Insecurities swallowed me instead,

dragged me from one pit to a deeper ditch.

It  made me cling to deadly things,

Pleasures that last for a little while,

For a little while it was euphoric,

For a longer while I was drowned in guilt.

 

 

Loneliness broke me apart,

It left a fractured mind.

when it was done with me,

I lost my power,

I was fading away.

The disgrace drove out peace,

Drove me out of Gods path,

Left me scattered in ruins.

 

 

The things I lie to myself about,

That I claim to be happy about,

How do I let them go?

So that when I am lonely,

I find peace instead of pain.
