Alone, I stand in this vast expanse,
A solitary figure in a silent dance.
No hand to hold, no voice to hear,
Invisible walls, my heart's austere.
Emotions echo in the empty halls,
Whispers lost amidst desolate squalls.
Aching silence, a weighty shroud,
Envelops me in a tear-stained cloud.
The world spins on, a bustling song,
Yet I am stranded, feeling so wrong.
Surrounded by faces, voices, and light,
Yet a cavernous void clouds my sight.
Longing for solace, a gentle embrace,
Yearning for warmth in this desolate space.
The ache within, an unspoken plea,
For a flicker of connection to set me free.
In this isolation, I am adrift at sea,
Lost in the depths of solitary debris.
Echoes of laughter, a distant chime,
But in this solitude, it's just me and time.
Alone, yet not by choice, I reside,
Seeking a beacon, a friend by my side.
Yearning for kinship, a soul to share,
To alleviate this burden I silently bear.
Oh, how I ache in this solitary zone,
Longing for solace, to not feel alone.
In the depths of this emotional tide,
I yearn for a connection where I don't have to hide.
So here I stand, in the depths of night,
Hoping for dawn to bring its light.
Until then, I'll brave this lonesome sea,
Hoping for a hand to reach out to me.
