loneliness

have you ever felt like no one's there?

my biggest fear is loneliness

heart sinking, cold hands and feet

heavy chest

different from a frosty winter's day

do you remember the days

of being young and snuggling up to someone

whilst placing your iced feet on them

it's like that;

but there's no one to annoy.

there's no one to listen

to the random thoughts you have

when you wake up at 2:37 in the morning

and there's no one there to laugh

at the pathetic lines you call jokes

It's just you.

think of it like you're in a quiet room;

you can hear your own heartbeat.

when you're alone, the

last thing

you want to hear is your own heart beating.

the simplest thing as a

thump thump

of another human's heart flowing is enough

to warm your fragile frame.

you nitpick at everything and anything you've ever done

wondering why

there may be seven billion people on the earth

but you seem to be the only one around.
