I'm lonely.

Lonely as in I don't have anyone to text anymore.

I take screenshots of funny things but I don't have anyone to send them to so they sit alone in my photos.

I see Instagram reels that remind me of people but no one there to watch them.

I have exciting news but no one to be happy for me.

I cry alone at night because no one is there to comfort me.

I kiss her hoping to make her stay but she doesn't.

I drink to numb the loneliness until I wake up feeling hollow with my head spinning and then everything's worse than before.

Lonely as in everyone who said they'd be here for me isn't here.

Lonely as in there's just me and empty promises surrounding me.
