Lonely

Poems & Stories

Thought I had found the one
Was convinced it wouldn’t be me and none
Planned a joyous life with you in it
Never considered flaws and obstructions for a bit
You made me feel complete and whole
Had no doubt of living my life sole
I don’t know what happened, don’t know what I said
Or maybe it was something about me you heard
You left all of a sudden without even a goodbye
I cannot comprehend, thought we were drawing nigh
I’m so broken, my heart’s been shattered
Can’t even mend it ’cause the pieces are scattered
When I close my eyes I see none but you
When I open them, I see all except you
I’m not angry, and I’m not mad
I can never feel hatred for you, I’m just sad
Been trying to convince myself of solitude
But I know it corresponds not with my attitude
I feel so lonely, like a part of me has left,
Like a chunk of me has been scooped away, this is more than robbery or theft
What can I do, you’re already gone
Damn! I thought life’s race was almost won
Well you’ve gone your way and I have to do so too
It’s going to be hard but just know that I’ll never forget you
I hope you don’t forget the times we spent together
For me, I’ll recall them till I close my eyes forever
