Harmony - A Collection of Poems

42. Loneliness.

Woke up today feeling lonely,
Started the day by feeling uncertain.
But as time went on, I realized,
That I needed to draw back the curtains.

I let the sunlight in, let it flood my room,
Waited for a change to occur.
But instead, nothing happened, except,
Deep down, my sadness stirred.

Those emotions took flight,
Consumed me until there was nothing left.
All I wanted was a friend,
Now I wonder how you left me bereft.

You stole my heart, then ran away,
I never found you again.
Now there's nothing more painful,
Than the shape of your name.

You haunt me like a ghost,
It's like you never left.
Except you did, and
I admire you for your theft.

You stole my feelings, and I regret that,
You stole my mind and my thoughts.
All I wanted was you and your friendship,
But I guess you had other plots.
