Even when surrounded by friends and loved ones, people can feel lonely. It’s one thing to say it’s all in the mind, it’s another to carry it within your own.
the loneliest place
was in her mind.
away from
the prying eyes
of those who loved her.
and it was
into
her mind
she wandered her latter days -
depressed into thinking
that loneliness was
her last true friend.
yet it was
all
in her head,
and if
she’d only
walked outside it
once in a while
she would have seen
an entire world
waiting
to embrace her.
