Against Loneliness

When the two lonely souls meet, they merge as one. It doesn’t have to be someone we know, but a passerby in life. It doesn’t have to be the physical contact, but the link between two separate minds. It doesn’t have to be everlasting, but a temporary satisfaction. We have different ways in ‘exercising’ the loneliness in us, we have a different definition when it comes to emptiness and we have a different circle of people who would be there by our sides when the darkness is engulfing us. We feel the loneliness when we couldn’t find a person to chat with after going through the phone book, we feel helpless when we need someone to share our problems with yet there isn’t any who we dare to open our hearts to and we feel insecure after knowing our friends do not treat us as friends but an enemy instead. We know there must be someone out there who is willing to listen, but it doesn’t mean we have the guts to welcome them entering our minds. We know there is a way to find out who is true and who isn’t, but it doesn’t mean we have the strength to hold on to our belief, to face them ever again. We know what we’ve known and what we are not told, but it doesn’t mean we can solve our problems using what we’ve got. It is the moment where we sense only the loneliness, it is the time where we see nothing else but disappointment and it is simply an entry out to emptiness.
