Every Shade of Lonely

Lonely isn’t simple, deeper than it seems,
different shades and colors, haunting quiet dreams.
Sometimes lonely whispers, sometimes lonely screams,
every shade of loneliness tearing at the seams.

Mornings lonely subtle, evenings deeply blue,
loneliness evolving, colors mixed in you.
Sometimes loneliness comforts, other times it stings,
every shade is different, quiet pain it brings.

Maybe someday color shifts, lonely fades away,
shades replaced with comfort, healing shades of gray.
But for now it colors deeply, sadness softly shown,
every shade of lonely painted on my own.

Learning shades more clearly, lessons loneliness taught,
healing slowly coming, colors bravely fought.
Someday maybe brighter, colors start to blend,
every shade of lonely someday finds an end.
