The silence of solitude of life, we dwell,
A lonely echo in our own desolate shell.
Alone for so long, we've grown used to the pain,
Calling it independence, a label we carry.

We've evolved, or so we claim,
But deep inside, it's not the same.
If one misstep taints our perfect facade,
The world deems us flawed, forever scarred.

We navigate life's maze with cautious stride,
Attempting to mask the ache we hide.
Four tasks we juggle, with trembling hands,
Three done well, but one misstep, and it all expands.

The weight of expectations, a burden we bear,
A constant reminder of our despair.
We've grown accustomed to the shadows we cast,
Finding solace in the emptiness that lasts.

Alone, yet not truly free,
Trapped in a cycle of what could never be.
We convince ourselves we're fine, it's true,
But deep down, we ache for normalcy.

Seeking solace within the comforting embrace of the coffee shop

The silent murmur of the café's embrace,
I seek solace for my shattered heart's grace.
Amidst the steam that swirls and curls,
I find refuge from the ache that unfurls.

Each sip a balm to soothe the pain,
As memories cascade like autumn rain.
The bitter brew, a bitter sweet,
Echoing the ache of love's defeat.

But in the warmth of this sacred space,
I gather strength, find a moment's grace.
For in each sip, a whispered vow,
To heal, to mend, to find somehow.

So here I sit, amidst the brew,
Finding solace in moments few.
For in the silence of this cafe's art,
I stitch together my brroken heart.

Silenced by the world, I stand alone,
My voice unheard, my thoughts unknown.
The pain inside, it cuts so deep,
A wound that's raw, that cannot sleep.

The silence is the most painful part,
It tears at me, it breaks my heart.
I scream inside, but no one hears,
I'm lost in darkness, consumed by fears.

The world moves on, but I stand still,
A prisoner of my own free will.
I long to speak, to make a sound,
But silence reigns, and I am bound.

The pain is real, it's all I know,
A never-ending, endless woe
I can’t speak, I can’t fight.
It’s painfully poetic
how this heart has been silenced.

Let your wounds heal, Otherwise, you will drip onto souls that were never the cause of your torment.

It's funny how what we want to hold onto slips away, and what we try to leave behind seems to have an unbreakable resistance.

Since your farewell, I have locked away my heart
Because your way of breaking it felt like a poetry

Since your departure, I have numbed all my feelings
Because your way of stirring them was so appealing

Since your absence, I have stopped dreaming at night
Because your way of haunting them was so bright

Since your silence, I have muted all my words
Because your way of speaking them was like a song of birds

Since your distance, I have frozen all my tears
Because your way of shedding them was like a rain of spears

I wish to reach my end a bit delayed,
in love and slightly tipsy
But love is hard to find when you're lonely and crazy
And tipsy is not enough when you're sad and gloomy
So I end up alone in my room,
drinking and watching TV

I wish to reach my doom a little delayed,
in love and mildly boozy
But love is rare to get when you're lonely and crazy
And boozy is not sufficient when you're blue and moody
So I end up alone in my bed,
drinking and smoking

I hope to achieve my fate a bit belated,
in love and faintly dizzy
But love is scarce to have when you're lonely and crazy
And dizzy is not adequate when you're depressed and grumpy
So I end up alone in my bed,
drinking and sobbing

Being alone is also an addiction,
nowadays I stay intoxicated
I talk to myself away from the world
Sometimes I remember that old friendship
When we used to laugh together, sing, cry
Now those moments are just in memories
I am just lost in myself
Being alone is also an addiction,
nowadays I stay intoxicated

If I ever lose my battle to the darkness in my mind
Just remember you were the light that made me feel alive
You gave me hope and strength when I was ready to give up
You showed me kindness and compassion when I felt unloved

If I ever lose my battle to the demons in my soul
Just remember you were the angel that made me feel whole
You gave me peace and joy when I was drowning in despair
You showed me grace and forgiveness when I felt unfair

If I ever lose my battle to the pain in my heart
Just remember you were the love that made me feel smart
You gave me wisdom and courage when I was lost and scared
You showed me beauty and wonder when I felt impaired

If I ever lose my battle to the illness in my brain
Just remember you were the cure that made me feel sane
You gave me healing and recovery when I was sick and broken
You showed me life and happiness when I felt unspoken
