The cause of loneliness

Loneliness isn’t about
not having people around you
or your empty room.

You have your thoughts
and stories to share
they are waiting to spill out,
and you have people
but
you don't feel
safe or comfortable enough
to speak around them.

Those unsafe people
and unsaid words
cause all your loneliness.
