The Monotonic Tone of Loneliness

There is a tone when completely and utterly alone.

A stark quiet-like gloom reverberating deep within the head.

A minuscule rattle disturbing the tympanum of one’s inner ear.

A humming thrumming emptiness hinting of fear brushing against

a symphony of nothingness echoing loudly in an empty room.

There is a buzz in emptiness

The blue bottle fly of loneliness head deep in decay 

mindlessly marking the end of days, 

yet, simultaneously, a profound sense of

 pervading stillness that will not go away.

There is a sense of compression 

in an empty room;

an ambient pressure, 

pushing against 

both body and brain. 

Invisible yet visceral - a sick psychic pain.

There is a rhythm to aloneness. 

Monotonic percussions beating heavily

within the unsought core. 

The droning music of minimalism 

tearing internal structures apart.

The inaudible death throes of the unwanted heart.

I'm glad I found this one. You've got a lot of talent in that pen that allows one to not only understand but sympathize with. Kind of like, yeah, that's what I would say that would cover it all. Thanks for sharing.
