Loneliness, Where Art Thou? Poem by Avinash Nair

Loneliness, Where Art Thou?



My love for you runs deeper,
Deeper than the wounds we share.
I have loved you more,
More than anyone else I ever had.
I nurtured, accepted and cared.
Walked with you when no one else dared.
All I ever asked, in return
Was your undivided attention,
Your subtle but selfish affection.
But when time came,
When it was your turn,
You just left me alone,
In the midst of these social beings!
I have suffered at their hands!
How much, you know not!
Asocial me in a social lot!
Can you imagine?
Oh my dearest Loneliness!
Where art thou?
I have searched for you,
Searched with all my love.
I need you, I need you now.
For a true love never dies,
It is what now I realise.
