Cold and Alone
I sit alone in a familar place
It's not too cold, though i brought you just in case
The river sits there cold and still
I'm not sure why i'm sitting here but i soon will
I pull out a picture, the one i have of you
I stare at it intently wondering again of the past
What might have been comes to mind again
These thoughts again dawn my mind like before
I freeze on the surface but the inside i'm not sure
Your face so delicate and soft
Still I grasp the piture alone, now in the dark
It's now so cold in the dark, where are you?
I need you and your no where to be found
I put my head in my hands, the cold goes so deep
I'm lost in thought, even to lost to weep
I stare at the dark image that was in my hands
I wonder of past and present yet still uknown
Why do i sit here so cold and alone?

 "Any fool can make a rule, and any fool will mind it."
Henry David Thoreau

Don't look... you might see.
Don't listen... you might hear.
Don't think... you might learn.
Don't walk... you might stumble.
Don't run... you might fall.
Don't make a decision... you might be wrong.
Don't live...you might die.

this is impressive...i like the way in which you use the cold aspect to emphasize your lonliness. don't be lonely...people out of view care and when needed will emerge from the woodwork...

Lovely poem...sad though.....don't get too down, people do care, you just have to reach out to them.

Love and hugs,

well i know how you feel.  being lonely really sucks but it mostly goes away.  every-once-in-a-while it comes back and you feel lonely again, but it will stop.  and it will go away.  don't worry.   i hope things get better.  Tara

just a note to all that read my writtings.  I do not usually write from personal perspective.   This is an example of it, i didn't feel a bit lonely when i wrote it.  I just sit down and start writting words.  So if you would, please critique them as writtings and not as senceire expressions of deep emotional pain
