I write about alot of what I feel or think one might "truly" feel, DEEP inside (hidden from view of most). But remember there is also alot of alienation one might personally feel in a relationship, regardless of the commitment or circumstances, because we all have feelings we need validated by our OWN standards. We many times seek that validation in many ways......from others, our outward appearance, our achievements, our successes, and often others opinions???? Yet we go away feeling empty , even though we have seen some results???????? We are in other words living in "REALITY" which shows us that we do not want to see, trying all the while to desperately fulfill a fantasy!!!! Unfortunately, our "fantasies" are not what makes us truly tick, and they are NOT what makes us TRULY feel loved and ACCEPTED!! Simply put they are an ~~~ILLUSION~~~......only that which we might "THINK " we see , but really never "truly" see!!!! I am no ones conscience, but I have experienced this first hand! BEEN THERE DONE THAT.......AND I WANT OUT!!!!!!!!! I know my validation does not come from others.....but sometimes, boy oh boy, others sure do help TO MAKE ME *FEEL* LOVED AND WANTED!! BUT.............. when the dark falls, and NO ONE IS LEFT.........and you don't feel that validation........how alone you can feel! So alone with my OWN REALITY and THOUGHTS OF MY DAY..... OF MYSELF........ the idea that I am who I am..................all I am supposed to be......... YES......THAT,,,,,,,,, is all I am left with really!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.....so hence this poem......!!!!!!!!! All Alone Once again anticipating Yet I sit to wait....all alone Heart on my sleeve dear Yet my heart yearns....all alone Waiting for you to respond to me Yet I wait for an answer....all alone Can't make the blind seem to see Yet I struggle through the dark.... all alone Screaming loud cries to get your attention Yet they fall to a deaf ear over and over.... all alone Remembering you is so painful to do without choking Yet one more desperate search for hope remains....all alone So, faced with reality in this world of illusion That has been realistically crashed, And I am left..... In REALITY All alone! |

Wow, the intro was longer than the poem I think and VERY LOUD to boot, But... I liked the poem. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

sometimes, you HAVE to be alone. . . that is the reality. . . it's what you do WITH that reality that will help you create the fantasy that will become your new reality. . . makes you think. . . well done. . . ------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
