Jamaica Welcome from Camille
 

The Feeling of Loneliness

What is this feeling I have?
It's about an emptiness
It feels like there is a space
Right here in my chest
It's about fleeting memories
Of a time when time was unreal
For just a small period in time
There was a completeness
There was a happiness
There was contentment
Despite the knowledge
That it would soon end
There was a feeling of being whole
For one moment
But now there is only emptiness
This loneliness
That engulfs
That overwhelms
That saddens
Now there is only a restlessness
In my spirit
That speaks of a want
That may never be fulfilled
An ache deep down
Where nothing and no one can reach
No friend
No acquaintance
No mentor
Will ever touch
It's all about forbidden feelings
And impossible dreams
It's about lost love
And burning lust
It's about forgotten dreams
And aching restlessness
It's about everything
I've ever had and lost
It's about a time
That will never return
It's loneliness I feel
And it feels like
It will tear me apart.
