Lonely Place

I smiled at their doubts,

now I sit here in
this lonely place
at the back of beyond
wrapped in
deepening twilight,

an unripe moon
unable to define
blotchy words
but every syllable is
etched deep inside.

"no longer in love"
"no one else"

I laugh and tell them
it was but a diversion,
my tears I will save
for this lonely place.

Enjoyed the finely threaded thought in your write cusick.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.
