Hide.
Don’t let them inside.
Lie.
Tell them you’re just fine.
Night falls fast for those
Who don’t want to wake up.
Curtains drawn
And nothingness washes over
Flat and hollow
And expressionless
Immune to feeling joy
Or anything at all
And it creeps in
This soul-stealing numbness
Best to pretend
That it will someday go away
But...
We are lonely.
We are lonely here.
Hide.
Don’t let them inside.
Lie.
Tell them you’re just fine.
We are lonely.
We are lonely here.
I am lonely.
I am lonely here.
