Creeping loneliness

poem

Creeping loneliness 

gently rains 

There is nothing more 

then tear stains.

Upon a clear night 

love resides 

among the rubble 

sits beside

An empty old heart

but no strings 

creeping loneliness 

it all brings

Flood gates will open 

and pour down 

to sum up a night 

I've been found.

 

Author's Note

Yes, there is a deep level of misunderstanding in this write,
it may be a hint of sadness, and maybe a lost connection with one's own heart.
THANK YOU if you review

I should have read this one before Tear Stained Memories! This captures the loneliness I mentioned in my other review. At least for me. It's not always sadness. Sometimes it's a passing breath, a gentle whisper, a ticking of the clock in the silence and then it is gone. I like the simplicity.

To me it seems like all the tears have dried up and only the stains remain.... you portray the loneliness with compassion..."creeping loneliness"....perhaps a moments worth... but I see a splinter of hope within this sadness... maybe this too shall pass....lovely

The picture shows what is about to appear... and then, the fall of your words, explains - in your own special way, how loneliness splayed in any number of forms can numb the human spirit. Perhaps? A sad but seemingly complex write.
