alone with nobody

sits by the window with the curtains drawn, Counting every minute till the night is gone. Silence like a blanket that she never chose, Loneliness a story only she knows. sHe whispers to the ceiling just to hear a sound, Feels like she’s the only soul left around. But somewhere in the distance, hope hums low— A quiet little promise that she’s not alone. Woke up to silence, it stayed all day, Coffee got cold ‘cause I drifted away. Scrolling through faces that don’t know my name, Trying to feel something but it ain’t the same. I laugh a little just to hear a sound, But it fades too quick when there’s no one around. I tell myself “you’re fine,” but I know that lie— Lonely sits heavy when you don’t know why. And I don’t wanna break, But the nights don’t wait. Every shadow on the wall Feels like it’s calling my name. I’ve been alone with nobody, Just me and the quiet in my body.Four walls talk but they don’t know me, Lonely gets loud when it holds me slowly. I’ve been alone with nobody, Trying to breathe through the weight on my heartbeat. Maybe one day someone’s gonna find me, But tonight I’m alone with nobody.
