Loneliness welling Inside my heart Towards my throat And through my veins Sluggish and slow As it eats me whole Devouring the goodness In each part of my soul Latching on To my lungs To my brain Leaving me breathless With a head filled with pain It leeches every bit From my body And still comes back To repeat the process Over and over The cycle continues It hardens my defences And shuts me out And still I am invisible Left alone Dealing with this horror Not a glance or look Thrown my way No one cares I am driven insane
