Alone
The loneliness suffocates me
I look around, searching
For someone to be there
Someone to talk to
No one around
This house is empty
Shells of people
Empty bodies
Inhabit this cold and dying place.
I curl up
Alone
Wishing for someone
To take away the
Emptiness.
There is no comfort
In an empty house
When you know that there
Should be
People
living here.
Instead the shells wander
Day after day
Ensconced in their comfortable
lies
One lives vicariously
Controlling others
The other finds salvation
In a church that
Surely knows him better
Than his family ever could.
I, stuck in the middle
Try to find a spark
Of life
To cling to
I come up empty-handed
On every search.
