Lyric Poetry

The Anthem of Loneliness
by Nur Nindya Kirana

Come inside and look alive
Be here with me and breathe,
for I shall tell you how much I treasure you
Fill me once again with your laughter
Oh, wish I could keep you from leaving

Keep me a company,
I shall not ask twice
The parade is here, leave me not
Aren't I too majestic to be left alone?
If only you could see how content I am

Though cold at night
Standing tall, waiting for the morn,
for your presence I treasure best
Oh, you know nothing of it!
Here i am abandoned when all is over

The ever space within
To hell with pride
I'm down on my knee begging
Stay, even for an hour or two
Stay, for your future starts here
