Loneliness

[miscootiey]

A rain drop hit my head
and I looked up

there shined a star
surrounded by all
but connected to none.

It seemed peaceful
and sincere yet
I knew the truth

that it was one
of many that felt
loneliness that night.

I then felt in my heart
longing to help that
star to see

that loneliness is
not to be feared
but embraced.

The feeling helps us
to remember what
is important

and to see that
togetherness can be
cherished.

Yet that does not
mean much to that
one lonely star

and the person
that was looking
up at it tonight.
