Analysis of Aloneliness



Aloneliness,
 thickening fog
 haze to look out of
 safe in your bog

Aloneliness,
  creating the space
  for Laura to fill
  her words to efface

Aloneliness,
 time and again
 taking me places
 love’s never been

Aloneliness,
 message so clear
 thundering wasteland
 silence in tears

Aloneliness,
 faithful in pain
 ever so near
 my eyes close again

Aloneliness,
  most trusted friend
  you that I count on
  there till the end

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)
