Alone

I am so lonely. I feel like every fiber of my being is crying out for someone to hold me, to love me, to make me feel like a part of something...

I don't want to be lonely. Alone, sure. But not lonely. I feel separated, detached, unlinked. To everyone and everything. Nothing gives me pleasure. No one no thing.

I want something that does not belong to me. I want it so much...and not even to own. I don't want it to call my own. I want it to know it's there.

Something essential has fallen away. Something vital has gone missing. I wish I knew what it was. I wish I knew where to find it. I want it back.

Give it back.
