Home Alone

Here I am
One and none
Me by myself
Even no sun

After you've gone
Lonely I sit
One in a home
No other wit
Ever witless, I sit

the second half is my favourite, because i find "lonely i sit...no other wit, ever witless i sit" quite clever.

Enigmatically woven like
Xylophone players' hands
Carrying on the part
Excelling at each note
Less happy, though;
Languishing in
Extreme loneliness
Nicely conveyed
Terrific job

...i went out on a limb there with the acrostic, but i figured it was worth a shot. i could easily have been wrong about that.

long story short, you're awesome.

A bit sad to read but then,
pull out all the memories and
you will hopefully feel better! /N
