The Lonely

I behold a woman sitting in her chair, Looking out her window, longing to share! I envision, a man submerged in TV, With nothing to say to his wife or family! I observe a boy rejected and scared! To gain a friend, he does what he’s dared! I relate to the girl, who is looking for love Giving in, when push comes to shove! I visit a world full of hate, envy, and strife While sitting in my office, both morning and night! I see a screen, on our phones and such Taking the place of a voice, and a touch! With an average number of three hundred friends Can you tell me why, loneliness trends? Written By: Stacey Brown 1-30-15
