Loneliness inspires writing and writing perpetuates loneliness Double-edged sword really one should relieve the other one would think but my thoughts keep creating scenarios of more loneliness Sometimes I just want to transform images on paper like the perfect man who holds the door open for me or brushes the hair from my face or gazes at me for what would seem like a century in such a way that would bring a tear to my eye but that's just fantasy and all I can seem to write about lately is reality Reality... my old friend your sobering slap on my face each morning as I wake and each night before I sleep you, my closest friend, are a cruel partner But still I have not given up hope for the man of my dreams to show up where no one else knows where I am and profess his undying love and devotion but that's just fantasy and here I am holding hands with my old friend REALITY. |
