What does Lamentations 1:16 mean?

That’s why I’m crying so much—my eyes are overflowing with tears. There’s no one nearby to comfort me, no one to lift me up. My children are destroyed, because the enemy has won. Lamentations 1:16 - Modern Text Bible

(The grief is overwhelming and there’s no comfort left, only loss.)
