There are no thoughts I share, <br />My woes that are entirely my own. <br />I suffer from loneliness, <br />and it shakes me to the bone. <br />No matter how deep the love, <br />Or how strong the bond, <br />I feel there is no place for me, <br />No place where I belong. <br /> <br />This will destroy everything I love, <br />But before Everything I love destroys me, <br />I bask in solitude like a comforting shade, <br />Protecting me from the affection I crave. <br />Hurt? Woe? Are all thats left for me to show. <br />Past Lovers? People I have not yet let go. <br />Will this define me? <br />I will never know.<br /><br />Rachel Henley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/basking-in-solitude/
