A touch of loneliness

 This stormy smuggy beautiful night 

Filled with music, whispers and lights bright. 

Loneliness and isolation screams with its might.. 


Even with the storm, even with the drizzling rain, 

It can't hide it's pain 

With great chagrin, it asks me 

Are you even worth the strain? 


And I fail to answer .. 

I fail to answer .. 

I don't know I say

I don't know, I whisper 


Those stars that hide, with its lights 

Are they hiding from my sight? 


Do I matter?  I ask. 

Do I matter enough for them to care? 

If I disappear now,

Will they mourn with despair?
