In the quiet night, shadows play,
Loneliness whispers, won't go away.
No one's there, just me and the moon,
Feeling lost in this quiet cocoon.
Stars twinkle high up in the sky,
But here, I'm all alone, oh why?
Heart is heavy, feeling small,
Loneliness, a heavy shawl.
Yet, in this silence, a tiny spark,
A chance to find strength in the dark.
Though alone, I'll find my way,
In the quiet night, a brighter day.
Song I recommend to listen to when you're feeling lonely:

The daughter of silence
It all started when Echo was five. She kept having these nightmares where she would just fall into a dark pit, screaming insanely loud, yet no one, not even her own parents would hear her. It was terrifying. But the most horrible part was that when she'd wake up panting, her parents were nowhere to be found, just like in her dream. She'd always cry herself to sleep alone and helpless.

Anna, I love your work 😍
How about happiness of life? Sould not we start to ask someone every day like "How are you?" Especially such people who looks like that one on the picture.
Excellent poem
I relate to one's loneliness as I have struggled on and off with a sense of not belonging. This is why I write and paint. You recreate emotion gracefully; you enveloped the sense of emptiness perfectly.
Good poem, Anna.
