Loneliness is what I know
no remedies can cure,
as it's not a common disease –
not even a disease.

When I say I'm feeling lonely,
I don't mean I need a friend
or anyone with me.
Loneliness is something that
has taken residence in the heart,
where the mind is blank,
only seeing happy onlookers
staring at my soul.

Those who celebrate with no sadness
on their expressions –
those happy, smiley, cute...
