Loneliness

m.xsm

It’s a strange word,loneliness.

It is a word that lingers at the end of your tongue,it is a word the plagues both the mind and soul. It is a strange word,loneliness.

whether you or I are in a crowded room where the air is hot and suffocation is near and your favourite people surround you. Still it lingers. Like a shadow it creeps; like a parasite it feeds.Till it consumes all your emotions and leaves you with nothing.Nothing but empty. Empty and numb, empty and afraid.

loneliness

It is an indescribable pain,an unmanageable hunger, an unquenchable thirst. It is a word.That  I am all to familiar with, a word that I  have the misfortune  of befriending

    I love it maybe having some sentences should be standalone.

      loneliness, an indescribable pain
      all your struggles in this go vain
      no one can feel how hurt you are
      You are a part of this war
      but never have to feel alone
      cuz everyone is going through the same.
      Wish I had a clown
      I could have slept forever from the reality
      escaping from this tragedy

      I am in awe at how you describe loneliness. It's so true and can not be described better. You'll go far, mate. This is a masterpiece
