Soledad
By Spiritus_Frumenti
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

And yet so beautifully glorious - that tang of despair - as sharp as desire itself...as deep as the need of belonging. The endless dichotomy, that rise and fall, ebb and flow of reality - the loneliness, quiet and a hushed whisper in the night

suffused with tears and bleak imaginings poignantly one stanza bleakest with hope - the depths of the darkest soul is tinged with the light of perhaps a brand new day, and perfect new imaginings...brilliant...

Can't even devote enough willpower to describe what this means to me. Beautiful. Your pain is my own.

you always have this supreme way of expressing things that leaves me feelings dirty and unworthy in comparison...and that fourth stanza was ripped right from my heart..
