A Creature Called Loneliness

Loneliness was here again today.
I felt him draw near, i tried to get away but he was already here.
He came from the shadows like a twisted grim reaper
He reached into my mind and began to burrow deeper.
He freakishly grinned, when he told me why he was there.
He replied in a loud voice "nobody likes you and nobody cares".
He twisted knots in my stomach that began to make me choke. " and you never have any money, your always broke .
I'm pretty sure everyone thinks your a joke."
He got inside my head and played tricks on my brain.
The more he whispered inside it, the more i felt insane.
He started to chuckle while he told me this feeling won't end.
Laughed even louder when he said " I'm not even your friend".
When i asked him why, he replied " where do i start?
Your not pretty, or funny and your not very smart."
That's when he wrapped his bony fingers around my heart.
The pain was so intense, it was more than i could bare.
His nails like razors started to tear.
Just when i thought i had suffered enough, he made his way further down and wrenched into my guts.
I felt so sick to my stomach i could barely even breath.
I cried out in pain and begged him to leave.
When i tried to ignore the pain i felt inside, he reminded me that from loneliness there's nowhere to hide.
"I'll always be here no matter how many people are around.
Deep inside your soul i will always be found."
