How do you exactly perceive loneliness?
Write any type of writing (poems, short story, statements, etc) about how you feel about loneliness. How would you exactly describe this feeling of loneliness in your own words? Is it sickening? Punishing? Comforting? Is it exactly the same as being physically alone?

Disengaged

“Look!” my breath catches in awe

Face skyward

Diamonds on velvet

As one races away

“… yeah, cool.” is your reply

Not even bothering

To glance up

From your phone
