lonely game

by kelli bircket (Aries) - Not entered

the face of loneliness 
is one i can't describe.
i've seen it many times though,
in my heart, it will not hide.
sometimes i try to cover up
by putting on a smile.
accompanied by a laugh,
my heart breaking all the while.
but frowns replace my smiling face
and laughs are masked by tears.
eyes are red and puffy 
from crying through the years.
my heart is torn in pieces,
fragments of a lonely life.
more breaking every minute.
cuts sharply like a knife.
actions, slow and forceful
will never be the same.
no notice to my surroundings...
playing life as a lonely game.

Reason for writing:

    because sometimes you just feel so lonely and empty inside!
