Loneliness.

It creeps in at night like a two-headed serpent,
Unwelcome and Unannounced.
Like a plague, it eats at you in order to make its presence known.

No prayers nor tears can chase it away because once it has you in its grip, it's impossible to escape.

So you search the world for love, the only cure you know to cure its poisonous bite.
But if one is not careful, even the so-called antidote that is love could be more dangerous than the loneliness that runs through your veins like disease.
I've just discovered the beautiful art of poetry and trying it out. Let me know what you think.
