Oh how fearful is this loneliness;

it leaves you empty and numb.

Makes you believe the wrong person is right. Fills you up with desperation. Desperation to fill that void, with anything... anyone you get your hands on. It may not be the person you desire, the person you really need right now. But you go out, reach out to anyone, conveniently available to you. You whisper sweet things to them, you utter words you don't mean;

selfishly filling the void threatening to eat you up, selfishly making the seat occupied that the person you long for, left vacant, abandoned.

Oh, the things loneliness makes you do.
