"Purgatory, he thought, was just a synonym for tomorrow."
-Second Glance


Loneliness tails me like a shadow
Always following
Never letting go.
My friendlist is blank,
My inbox empty.
No unanswered calls fill my answering machine.
The doorbell remains silent.
The seat next to me is never taken,
Never saved.
I stand at the edge,
But no friendly hand pulls me back.
People pass me by
Not noticing I’m there.
I see the world through a haze of gray,
Live it in perpetual cold
Longing for a warm voice in my ear
Or a comforting touch on my arm.
Always hoping...
