TO FOOL LONELINESS


You watch me in the mirror and I see you.
Parasiting habitant of two.
This body is ours to feed on,
other companions are long gone.

To fool loneliness I invented you,
a mirror image, copy of blue.
I comb your hair, you straighten my tie.
Oh what a perfect, little innocent lie.

We move among others but they cannot see
the perfect balance between you and me.
All they see is a lonely soul,
desperately searching for the greater whole.

And yes it might be true,
I was pretty lost I admit.
But then I found you.
Such a perfect, flawless fit.

Alone ever after we'll live.
The others we won't need.
They have nothing to give
except frenzy and greed.

Hi Dan,
Lovely, as usual!
Sometimes it is good to talk to oneself,
to turn loneliness into solitude.
Sometimes it is nice to look at yourself in the mirror,
to see your soul.
Sometimes it is nice to close your eyes,
and introspect.
Sometimes it is good to cry your self to sleep,
to lighten the burden of agony on your soul...
Sometimes it is nice to be simply
Alone!
(((Hugs))
Love,
Zoya
