The music of loneliness
I should've felt sad when the guitar played.
Standing amongst friends as the crowed swayed.
I should've looked around and known it then.
My heart holds on but my brain asks when?
I should've been amped when the drums boomed.
But instead I sat on my phone and zoomed.
Searching for the lover that will never be.
My loneliness beginning to consume me.
The voices sang in crowds of cheers.
But I sat there nursing my fears.
Embracing life and love and joy would be fine.
If only my appearance changed and I began to shine.
