The walk

On a lonely walk with my headphones plugged in ,

As the lights of happiness with me start going dim ,

I go into deep contemplation ,

This is really not an easy expedition .

And though the songs continuously change ,

It never goes , this feeling that seems strange ,

And as the songs try lift my mood ,

It seems with me , happiness doesn’t really want to collude .

Although the walk doesn’t seem long ,

And nothing really seems wrong ,

I am consumed by this emptiness ,

Like inside me , there is an inexplicable loneliness .

Ultimately this walk will end ,

But this feeling inside me won’t really end ,

And as life continues to be lonely ,

I look for that one person or place that seems homely .
