Sonnet of Loneliness
As I walked on a busy street,
Side by side with random people
Seeing variety of souls when eyes meet
I see joy, love, hatred and trouble
Across the street I see an old lady
Seeming like she lives because she’s alive
Seeing her soul that says her history
The eyes that speaks of how she strived
A young boy in teary eyes while licking his icecream
However his mother ignored while chatting on her iphone
How ironic life can be when loneliness can’t scream
It tends to hide and ends up like a drone
It’s funny how loneliness is unnoticed in tons of way
Until somebody decides to end one’s chance to live in a day…
