Hold Me Close
Loneliness isn't felt in your heart;
it's the absence of an arm across your shoulders.
It isn't the inability to stand tall,
it's yearning for someone to lean on.
You can be lonely in a crowd of people.
You can be lonely watching your favorite movie.
You can feel loneliness late at night,
or in the middle of the day.
It's not something to dwell on,
instead
think of kind arms holding you close.
think of warm smiles throughout the day.
think of conversations preventing any and all sleep.
think of love and;
your loneliness may disappear.
