Loneliness

Why does this loneliness eat me up?
Why does it follow me
Everywhere-

To the divine city of Rome,
to ethereal and the most magnificent city of Lima and
to the most beautiful paradise city of San Francisco.

Why does one only wait
For the happiness to come?
Why do you and I wait
to be happy?

Isn't it all inside of us?

Then why not soak ourselves in it,
In its warmth and
In its glory?
