hi richard. the title does a good job and is tied to the poem enough to add something.

The Loneliest Feeling
I feel
like a hungry refugee in a tent.
Behind my eyes,
fear, rage and self-loathing.
When i ask myself why, no need for when
the only answer is nowhere i like the use of nowhere it adds that feeling of utter isolation
I look desperately towards
a future that is measured numerically would a comma instead of [that is] strengthen the line.
by those who kiss their wives before bed,
tell their children
the world is fair,
and refuse
to look me in my eyes.
The dream ends.
I lie next to my wife,
my child safely sleeps in the next room;
my empathy
denied entry based on ethnicity.
