That Thing Within
August 12, 2009
It’s weird
The loneliness
That threatens to swallow you up
After watching a happy movie
A song expressing a positive emotion
Hanging out with friends
It comes
Deep inside, like a black hole
As you realize
You are just one person
In the whole wide world
It grips you
It shakes you
It makes you feel cold and dark
It’s inside you, never going to leave
Shudder in private
Put on a brave face
And soldier on
