I was struggling

to sleep

but the pain

in my heart

was threatening

to burst open

Which was

virtually

getting me

into an

emotional

strangulation.

So I got up

and wandered

in the darkness

of my

room

The vacuum

increased

the pain

in my

heart

once

again

I

wanted

to cry

as I

couldn’t

bear this

loneliness

anymore

Restlessly

I went

and stood

on the

balcony

to be

greeted

by a cool

refreshing

breeze

Soothing

my

pain

a bit

The roads

were

empty

the houses

looked dull

and

ugly

The

silence

of the

night

gripped

me

with a

sudden

fear

Loneliness

loomed

large

again

Tears

flooded

my eyes

blurring

my

vision

I walked

back

into the room

switched

on the

lights

Bathed

myself

in the

soft

glow

of it

It helped

as it

washed

away

the fear

of

death

Because

light

symbolises

life

But

still

I

couldn’t

help

wondering

about

my

loneliness

And then

by chance

I caught

a glance

in

the mirror

A smile

grew

on my

face

making it

look

brighter

For I have

then

realized

I

wasn’t

lonely

anymore

Because

I

was

with

myself...
