Shaky broken breaths ripped from the lungs
Soft sobs smothered by feathers and fabric
It can't be heard but the pain is overwhelming
As another piece of her heart crumbles
Lonely
The only soul in a queen size bed
Reaching out for someone but getting sheets instead
Tossing and turning trying to find comfort in dreams
But finding herself staring at the ceiling instead
So very lonely
Left broken by a love she thought was real
Left shattered by words that burn
Found comfort in arms from the past
A few moments of healing love
But out of those moments left feeling less than who she is
Lonely
Tired of this feeling
Tired of holding in words that burn her heart
She is tired but must stay quiet
Must keep the love for one and the hate for another secret
Must learn to be lonely
Must learn to live with the secrets of her heart
Lonely
