Loneliness

The weekend comes

and you are thrilled to

be done with classes

for that week.

You race over

to your calendar

propped up on

your dresser.

But now you

wish you hadn't looked.

You discover that

just like every

weekend before that,

nothing is there.

Weekdays filled with studies,

weekends filled with seclusion.

Your social life is nonexistent.

Your love life is in agreeance.

Depression sets in

as abandonment contributes.

But unfortunately loneliness

consumes all inside you.

Night falls and you

are still in seclusion.

You turn out the lights

on a night of sadness.

You cry yourself

to sleep.

You wake up

once again and

it is next weekend.

I liked this poem..It actually describes our daily life..But actually I am not among those who hate their daily routines..It feels good when you have something to do..But after a certain point it may seem frustrating..You wrote it really well...
Keep on writing..

Such things keep us in pace with the world only to find the lonelier hours can be quite heavy...filling the gaps in life is seldom easy...told with a strong emotion Jordan :)

This poem is way too real. You're singing the song of many people.
