Alone

She was alone, completely alone

No one, no one with her

No one, not even the shadows.

As it was a late-night, completely dark

The night was alone, roads were alone

And her soul was alone too.

She felt someone following her

Someone just noticing her

Just keeping a check of her.

Of her every move, of her every walk

Every turn, every crossing...

She started feeling more alone

As night was alone, roads were alone

And her soul was alone too.

She increased the pace 

Faster than her normal one

Way faster than she could try

But the follower was even faster than her 

Even more cautious than her

And was even more skeptical than her.

She was shivering, sweating, thinking

Blinking and just walking...

Finally reached the home 

Turned back, the man had gone.

She felt relaxed, relieved, retrieved.

But was still alone, maybe will always feel the same 

Maybe even in the lights of day.

She is alone, was alone, will always 

Be alone...
