Physically being alone is just a toothache A dull reminder that something is missing, or that something is lost Realizing that you have no one to share your day with No one to tell your hopes and dreams Even on our greatest days where we have found within ourselves the kerosene to brighten our flame and chase away the dark Our toothache flares and finally we feel the buckshot that is mentally, spiritually and totally alone It invades like an infection creeping through our muscles until bed becomes a form of open casket Rotting away our heart and soul until finally our optic nerve gets reached This cancerous emotion erodes our sight and stops us from seeing the light outside ourselves We stumble in our new found dark As our brain is corrupted we reach these dark hallucinations that if there is no one to share our good day with then what is the point of having good days at all Before we know it our bodies are no longer our own, we feel unsettled in our own skin. Not even our own company is enough
