This is loneliness
This is loneliness, it comes because of you; my loss of you,
The need, the want, the desires; ____such loneliness.
How does the heart heal? Do tears wash the pain away?
I need you___and want you___I desire you!
This is loneliness, it comes because of you; my loss of you,
It’s never ending. I can only remember____everything.
In the night, in the morning light, I am alone.
I imagined you always being there beside me. Must I feel?
The hungry heart that bleeds, the eyes full of tears.
The heaviness, it comes, it goes. Lock-down desires, quick!
Change the subject least feeling is too much,
Here I am, not daring to scream. Screaming all the time!
This is loneliness, it comes because of you; my loss of you,
I wish I found you in my dreams. I wish I could feel your touch.
Knowing you are gone, I could not bear that____ I’m alone.
I imagined you always being there beside me. Must I feel?
The hungry heart that bleeds, the eyes full of tears.
The love in my heart___and I can’t find the right words____
words that might just express this. My head does not want to work.
I think I am ok, and then I am not. The only thing is to write.
This is loneliness, it comes because of you; my loss of you,
I write and write, and then I can cry. Finally release.
Your laughter, your smile, the way you hold me all night.
I imagined you always being there beside me. Must I feel?
