'Born in '66' by Anonymous

In this era of connectivity

And life's longevity

Why am I so alone?

And for how long?

Nobody knows

From the outside I have everything

The mask doesn't slip

The smile and laugh is oh so quick

Yet deep down...

On my own my key is in minor

It never used to be like this

Yet over the years, something has gone amiss Unknown, unseen, gradually creeping up, creating Meaningless social interactions and genuine loneliness

Loneliness can be invisible

It's not just physically being there

And at 3 am in the morning

When you're wide awake in bed

Remember the sun always rises

On a better day ahead
