Lonely Hearts Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi

Lonely Hearts

Rating: 5.0


No bouquets of flowers
No sonnets to proclaim some else's love
I guess I'll buy a big box of chocolates for myself
And stuff my heart with guilt
For every year, my lonely heart feels emptier
As I try to fill it with something else
It grows heavy with solitude
The thing I want to have nothing to down with it
But I'll end up waltzing away with
On the coldest night of the year

Sometimes even sweet chocolates get passed by and left in the box. Till they are discovered bringing satisfaction and singing on that day!
