Loneliness, you see.
Waits for me on Christmas Eve.
The day she left me.
Pancreatic cancer why?
Alone…why wasn’t it me?

In response to Brett Christensen’s prompt “Alone”.

I am an anonymous writer who was raised in a dream world filled with monsters, suffering, and pain. In order to cope, I started writing to escape.
