I Promise I'm Not Lonely


Your name is only whispered in the dark,

but I'm not lonely.

 

Every hello is an unfinished love letter to you,

but I'm not lonely.

 

I spend every sunset without you, 

and every morning with the ghost of a kiss imagined,

but I'm not lonely.

 

You want to hold her hand,

but I'm not lonely.

 

Not lonely.

 

I promise I'm not lonely.

 

Not lonely.

 

I promise I'm not lonely.

 

Lonely.

 

I'm lonely.
