Dejection

Your words tore me apart
Yet I stayed – for love’s sake.

But, not anymore; after all
Loneliness is blissful – not dejection.

  10. Interesting to think about the relationship between loneliness and dejection, whether indeed loneliness is blissful.

    1. Yes... I think I also agree to it...
      But, when the loved ones hurt us beyond a limit, we would be left with no option but to move away... More so because we dont want to see them hurt!
