    Loneliness for me is feeling left out. I'd never dealt with it but now as I grow up theres this weird; a hollow like space in my heart; which bothers me. I feel uneasy and just prefer to be alone at that time. I feel like that chair at home which is everybody's favourite. Everyone uses it and the moment it is damaged, it is left all alone.

    I've never experienced the feeling of loneliness, nor have I been afraid of it. But it has left me with quite the problem of feeling incomplete when I'm not with myself but with others. I enjoy the company of myself and others, yes. But it is not the same, and it'll never be the same. And that, sometimes, makes me extremely sad.

    Bukowski is back! I think loneliness is not being interested in all the things that excite others and because I don't feel their joy or enthusiasm I feel like reclusing. I wouldn't say this bothers me now but I have had years in the past where I felt this strongly.

    I wanted sth to make me accept it, to deal with everything alone u know, because no one understands this feeling,
    It’s funny, just trying to understand a feeling,
    And this poem…came at the right time….
