Loneliness

Selfish and vain-
Hopes and needs,

Never quite extinguished,

But hidden in a place you cannot see.

I never understood,

Why you'd say you want me.

I can't let go,

Forlon memories,

Only in hindsight.

I never understood,

Why you wouldn't let go of me,

Is it because you're lonely?
