"When I get lonely these days, I think: So be lonely. Learn your way around loneliness. Make a map of it. Sit with it, for once in your life. Welcome to the human experience." - Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
Call me masochistic. But there was a time in my life when I was most happy in my misery, when I found solace in tragedy.
And so, here I am again, alone with Loneliness. I'm letting its cold fingers touch me. Yes, damn, I'll sit with it, even hold hands with it. Hell, I'll even sleep with it. Nietzsche said, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." I know it will be futile to fight with it because how can one win with Loneliness?
So, like spurned lovers forced to be together, I'll live with it for now.

ALL ALONE
All these emotions are just stuck in my head
I can't find the words for them to be said.
No one around me seems to understand,
all I want is for someone to hold my hand.
Just a simple hug is all I am asking for
you make it seem like that's such a chore.
when will the day come that i'm finally free,
from this dark place that has captured me?
I have no place to go or anyone to run to.
my happy days are becoming quite few.
I only wish with all of my might,
that I won't cry myself to sleep tonight.
