My Loneliness Laying in my bed Every cold dark night Thoughts running through my head Tears blurring my sight. It's hard not to feel so alone When I never hear the blarring of the phone. I dont hear many knocks at my door It makes the loneliness so much more. Sometimes the tears sting my eyes, Not one person hears my lonely cries. I dont know how long this can go on, Everything in my life seems so wrong. People can come and go, But in the end who do I really know. I dont think i know myself anymore, Its not the same, Not like before. The pain in my life has to fade, Everyday I look at the mess Ive made. I do try to make myself feel good, Like the way I really should. Happiness is something that i really miss, but how can I be happy feeling loneliness like this? |

Heaven's Tears When life around you doesn't seem all that sweet When approaching a new day brings forth all your fears When the petals of your heart have no sun to greet You find yourself wishing for a drizzle of heaven's tears When love turns to pain hidden deep within the soul When trust is shattered by the one you hold dear When chambered walls resist your life's goal Reach for the stars praying for a mist of heaven's tears Lift your head high pay attention to the wind Have faith in your new path blaze it full of cheer For as you glance forward from the sky it descends Not a drizzle nor even a mist but a downpour of heaven's tears Mark Bohannan Hope this helps. I have often felt the way you do and I know the pain leaves many scars. Take care my friend. |

I love this, I've felt the same way many times, I really hope you can feel some happiness some time soon, at least with yourself, Love&Hugs. The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look |

Hi Beth thanks for sharing I can really relate this, that feeling of loneliness. enjoyed reading this.
