there is

there is

By Daisy Dai

there is this loneliness 
as i think of you longingly 
the way you used to be 
so complete in my arms 
i never knew life could be 
so intertwined with another 
until the strings loosened 
and i realized i was caught 
in a stringy web of lies 
a whirlwind of sticky deceit
can you believe i ever believed 
it was something more than 
a string of one night stands 
that you were looking for more 
than just a sad remedy for lonely
