Another Night Alone

The hungry hips of Lonely
Press into my own
Starved for love
In the sullen black of night
His coldness lays near me
Too close for comfort
My skin sent crawling
Every sense on guard
And I feel his bony hand
Cold, clammy, starving
Trace my silhouette
Leaving hollowness behind
At last his famished fingers
Lock around my throat
Choking tears out into pillows
-Another night alone
