Soledad

Loneliness makes everything feel quieter,
As people become ghosts
And the sky seems larger than you ever remembered

Things begin to change,
Yet you awake to the same pain
Like your heart just got broken

You could sit for hours staring
at something distant,
Something that perhaps is not there
Very much like you

At times,
You would write love letters
and read them out loud to no one
Just to make yourself cry

Thoughts of suicide linger,
But so does the hope
of witnessing something grand
Like one day you'll be able
to touch God's hand

Loneliness makes everything feel quieter,
As the end becomes a whisper
And the night seems darker than you ever remembered
