hello loneliness
i know you won't stay
soon i'll have laugh lines set in my face
and you'll be far away
but for now, hello loneliness
you've come when the door has closed
and i'm left to the thoughts in my head
and the questions they pose
hello loneliness
i greet you a little more often these days
you're found in the moments when i'm by myself
seemingly cut off from the world's gaze
you creep in slowly but surely
when my mind is idle with no task at hand
and i've swallowed the silence whole
left to what my heart demands
