Loneliness waits at the end of this dream,
Awakening with no one to cling to.
Silence greets me when I wake,
no one there to feel their touch, caress my skin, kiss good morning.
Will I ever feel the love of someone there when I wake?
Is there anything other than the hollow sounds of an empty home?
Not for me, not this day.
Perhaps tomorrow will greet me with passion, but today,
Loneliness.
