Isolation

They say,what is isolation?
Is it something you confess?
Something you relate to?

Or something you have to guess?
Like if you are left all alone in your home.
For an year or half.

You might feel broken.
Torn,behalf.
The yearning for someone’s touch.

And the sound of their voice.
Isolation is painful and not a choice.
When a kid is isolated for too long.

It doesn’t always make them strong.
They’ll yearn for the voices.
And better life choices.

I just wanted to hear somebody call my name.
Isolation is painful,and empty of shame.
It just falls upon you and breaks your back.

Steals your emotions and breaks your heart.
As the time slowly goes by.
Day,night,isolation is not a lie.

I just wanted to feel somebody’s hand in mine.
A warm hug,handsa round my body or spine.
One touch is all it takes.

To make isolation disappear,but not for long.
There starts a fire.
A big,black void with emotions for hire.

They say,just tell me please.
Why does this lack of emotion release?
Has it really been this long?

It can really mess with your head.
Make you think about it in bed.
But when nights get cold and lonely.

I call the glowing moon before me.
And isolation slowly fades.
So many different shades.

It may take months or even years.
You yearned for someone to wipe your tears.
Maybe even help you erase your fears.

Isolation is like a rabbit hole.
Be careful not to fall.
Imagine a place far away.

Where isolation and loneliness is taken away.
Sunshine,rainbows.
All are happy there.

So isolation leaves.
And you’ll feel relief.
Finally the help you need.
