POEM STARTER
Submitted by Margaret Sok
Write a poem or story around the theme of 'Lonely Together.'
Lonely Souls
They say misery loves company
That two souls tired to their bones
Still prefer not to be alone
When a morning stretch
Sounds more like a morning creak
The path towards home still has
Four, instead of two, feet
Skin scorching under the merciless sun
And the day has barely just begun
It’s better when ten fingers innertwine
The feel of another heart beat surviving
Right next to mine
Strung up high in the midnight sky
The moon dances through the windows
Sleep chases me and my eyes comply
So long as you lie next to me, kissing me good night
