“Fading into loneliness is a feeling many struggle with.
This poem captures that journey—of trying, failing, and slowly fading away.”
Everyday I’m dying,
Crying,
Trying,
Lying to myself.
Everyday I see,
I hear,
I observe,
But nothing feels real.
Everyday I feel
The hurt,
The pain,
Sinking deep inside.
Everyday I mourn,
I’m torn,
I learn—
I’m fading… away.
Everyday I hold,
Grip,
Get close,
But still so far away.
Everyday I try,
To sleep,
So deep,
But stay awake…
Loneliness is not always about being alone—it’s about feeling unseen, unheard, and disconnected even in a crowded room. This poem reflects the slow descent into isolation, where every day feels like a cycle of pain, longing, and numbness.
Many of us battle silent struggles, putting on a mask for the world while feeling lost within ourselves. The poem captures that unspoken sorrow—the exhaustion of trying to hold on, only to feel further away from everything and everyone.
