I live this life, I try my best I have so many questions sometimes I search, I'm on a quest quite open to suggestions I want to need, I need to Love but still my heart says "No" another chance, floats from above drifts by amongst the "flow" Alone I feel, alone I sit friends always close at hand I'm not alone, but still the hole in which Love used to stand I love my friends, they love me back so how can I feel lonely? I stand in light, but seems so black 'cause no~ones' here to hold me Quite backwards I feel, my feelings do seem with so much good in and around me but intimate Love, to me just a dream entangled and almost twice drowned me So why do I want? and why do I need? this one thing that my life is lacking? I wish I could change, I wish I could plead I wish I could find my heart slacking Love can drive you wild, Love can drive you mad Love lately has sure had me thinking I'm happy and free, but also so sad these feelings may drive me to drinking Love taught me to feel, Love taught me to cry Love taught me to be true and real Love taught me to hate, Love makes me ask why Love is all that can make me heal One small little word, so many emotions from heaven to hell in one trip such violent aray, such deadly devotion just waiting for me to soon slip< !signature--> Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer. [This message has been edited by ThUnDeRkYsS (edited 06-24-2000).] |

Simply wonderful, love and so many emotions. god I love this stanza. One small little word, so many emotions from heaven to hell in one trip such violent aray, such deadly devotion just waiting for me to soon slip anyway, ?? God I love this. haha. Joel. I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

Thank you both so very much for your kind replies and words of encouragement. I know why I am where I am today, and frankly... I helped myself to get here, but I only wanted it to be temporary; and now, when I want it all back, I am having troubles  lol Hopefully, in time I guess. Thanks again guys.Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer. |

This was great. The hole where love used to stand..Boy can I feel that. Lonely with and lonely without, thats how it goes for me. Yet you always want it again. What fools are we?? I don't care, love is worth it. Sandra |

Great poem, Thunder......and because I tend to write in rhyme and meter, I appreciate all the effort. But it's your words that speak out to so many hearts...mine included. Bravo!!! Hardrock |

I'm not one to like rhyme at all but this poem was beautiful, every part of it... I love my friends, they love me back so how can I feel lonely? I stand in light, but seems so black 'cause no~ones' here to hold me this is my favorite part, it is so hard to be happy when all you want is someone to hold you. loved it Dana Isaiah 1:18 "Everyone loves a rose, will you be thankful for the thorns?" |

I absolutely loved your poem, I am going through the same thought patterns, I keep trying to tell myself I'm happy being single, I'm not alone but I'm so lonely, I believe I am ready to love again its just the wait for him that hurts. |

..caught up in the confusion that lonelyness causes I love this one! I'm dying to be able to... ...Slip (and fall in love with someone new, who wants me for me, not for what they want me to be) Don't think I'm ready. Enough is enough. I just want to crawl into a box and wait. |
