Lonely

Today is a day where the loneliness collects

It’s always there, floating in the air

Then, like a rain cloud, it gathers and it all comes pouring down

I sit in the sunshine, with rain my heart

There is no escape

It makes for a heavy emptiness

Causes me to reflect on everything

It’s the same old story

Things change, but manage to stay the same

I have been trying to get from people what I can

But there is only so much they can do

But it has been nice connecting in a new way

I wish I had started sooner

I know I have made mistakes

I have acknowledged and apologized for them

But, I guess, it’s not enough sometimes
