Aarish's POV

Loneliness or solitariness or aloneness or forlornness.

So many synonyms but only one effect.

But if you ask me to describe it, it's hard.

Sometimes I would say it's a fierce fire that slither from your mind to all the way down, flumping in your heart and then burning and squeezing it down. Some other times, I think it's completely the opposite, where it's as cold as ice. It climbs up your walls like cold winter breeze, sneaking inside your crevices, and eventually invading it. It's that tingling sensation which takes over your skin when you step on your cold kitchen floor, barefoot. And it's standing from behind, surrounding you, while you aimlessly gaze through your open freezer door. It's there and it's watching over the silent struggle between your basic human need for nutrition versus your lost appetite.

You see? There's many things that could resemble that feeling. For instance, the penetration of that obnoxious rays and the exhaustion, followed by my unwillingness to lift my body and shut those curtains on all of it.

That's how I contradict with myself whenever I think about loneliness. It's sometimes the fiery, hungry monster ready to eat me alive, and other times, it's as cold as a dead body casting it's dark shadows as it sweeps me inside of it's deep hole.

And I suffer both ways.

Its like I'm drowning myself in these poisoned waves of loneliness, whose pain is spreading inch by inch all over my body, radiating it fiendishly throughout my system and gradually increasing to the point where I may explode. The fear of it is weighing heavily on my very existence. And the fear of being alone with these thoughts is sending chills down my muscles and bones. I don't want to be alone like this because I don't know where they'll take me. Maybe far away. Far enough to get lost and never come back.
