loneliness (my greatest fear)

by orange_4_m - Sagittarius

im backed against the wall again,
my efforts useless and in vain.
avoiding the break, i continuously bend,
trying to avoid this repetetive pain.

my greatest fear is loneliness,
in it, i idly wade.
unsure of what others may think,
i pretend to like it this way.

during the day im happy and carefree,
at night, i fight sleep with my cries.
holding the pillow tenderly,
i imagine it's someone asleep by my side.

but when the morning breaks,
im back where i started again. with
my greatest fear...loneliness,
dried tears, and an empty bed.
