Solitary

I see you filling a void
emotions are not to be toyed
with, but you are numb;
too dumb to learn from
your past and unwilling to
listen to
those who truly cared for you.
loneliness and isolation go hand-in-hand
she needs you like she'd need any other man
and you need me, but you won't set your mind free
from the chains and straps that restrain
your emotions and body from feeling pain.
dwindling cycle of drinking and clouds of smoke
you think it's all fun until you choke
on the bitter taste of reality
and you're soon to see it's nothing but solitary


The author's comments:
I hope that people will live and learn. Jumping into a relationship directly after getting out of one gives you no time to recover, to reflect on the past and does nothing but fill a void. You can't replace people.
