Alone in Pauses


How alone am I
in a dark dingy room
where shadows loom
with euphoria abound
but no thoughts profound
counting the lonely stars
fading horn of distant cars
when the music stops
and the curtain drops
just before my sigh
how alone am I?

How alone are you

in between your coffee sips
watching the moving lips
missing the spoken words
walking with alien herds
amidst the traffic lights
waiting for broken kites
with a different point of view
how alone are you?

How alone are we

reading the quiet signs
in between the times
when all stops moving
then will we see
that I'm not you
and you're not me
so let our differences be
to know
how alone are we.
