a companion in the abstract

loneliness tells me to succumb
waiting only brings more pain
so i drift into hypotheticals
that brings me joy...the world and how it was supposed to be
a world of compromise
a world of a breathing cadaver
loneliness takes me on a walk
having the streets all to myself
where i'm the focus of the street lights' attention
acknowledging me with their green lights
making me feel wanted
keeping me from being alone
without a companion made from the same flesh
but where there is a reason for continuing my footsteps
waiting only brings more pain
so i drift into hypotheticals
that brings me joy...the world and how it was supposed to be
a world of compromise
a world of a breathing cadaver
loneliness takes me on a walk
having the streets all to myself
where i'm the focus of the street lights' attention
acknowledging me with their green lights
making me feel wanted
keeping me from being alone
without a companion made from the same flesh
but where there is a reason for continuing my footsteps

very effective imagery, nice flow.
i liked the line "so i drift into hypotheticals"
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
