ghost of loneliness

Loneliness creeps through
the void
that is created
in your heart
and pulls you
into the depths of eternal
darkness and sorrow.
It builds a wall
between you and your loved ones
making you unable to see
and hear them clearly.
Even when they show affection
you feel left out
wondering “Do I even matter?”
One by one
it cuts the ties
with people around you
making you feel
unwanted.
The ghost of loneliness
hanuts you,
it wishpers nasty stories
in your ears
and you believe them all
because no one
tells you otherwise.
You slowly start believing
that no one will notice
if you disappear into thin air
someday.
