Loneliness<o:p></o:p>

<o:p> </o:p><o:p> </o:p>

The sharp claws of loneliness

Grip the heart in its cruel fashion

Emphasizing emptiness

 A void of love and passion

<o:p> </o:p>

Maybe love is a strange apparition

A fabrication of imagination

Desires, the blossoms of delusion

Ecstasy, a confused vision

<o:p> </o:p>

Pain is tangible, jolts the being with passion

Rakes the soul with emotion

Deprived heart captured by the venomous claws

Thrashes achingly against the laws

<o:p> </o:p>

Struggle persists�? Pain deepens

Heart, the prisoner of its own emotions

Constricts the flow�?.narrows the veins

Ruptures the cage�?

A futile attempt to tame rage

<o:p> </o:p>

Loneliness still prevails

It’s the soul that ails

Death’s sweet potions�?the only cure

Step into the light�?.

Away from life’s lure...
