*Please tell me which one is better or which one you prefer, thanks  ~*UNLOVED SENRYU*~ 5-7-5 1) A lonely heart weeps no one listens to her plea alone, so unloved 2) a lonely soul weeps only emptiness surrounds alone, so unloved By Melissa Honeybee |

Both of these evoke that feeling of despair that only the lonely know..but I personally enjoyed the second one better. Both of them are extremely well done though!  *Krista Knutson* ~We are only truly lost when we have lost ourselves~ |

Both are quite good indeed, but I have to agree with Alwye and say that the second one reads better. . . Excellent... ----------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Melissa~ Both speak of sadness Emitted on sorrow's sigh Alone, she does cry *Hon, the second is the better of the two you wrote. You touch my heart with your tears. Please know that I'm here for you. Love you~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

They are both wonderful, Melissa. I prefer the second as it seems to encompass any type of loneliness, not just 'no one listening'. Denise |

Hi Melissa, well I have to agree with everyone that I prefer the second one, both are powerful pieces filled with sadness. |

Hey..I liked the first one...but I admit I know nothing about senyru's...I just like the way it sounds when you read it and the emotions it stirs up. James |
