There Is Nothing Left. Pictures on the wall, frames lopsided Empty chairs, bed sheets dusty not removed Shoes on the porch, unentered Months, years, have been and passed A moment comes to mind, when we were two Laughter, and smiles, dances in the corridor Kisses and cuddles, falling to the floor Days gone, never to return, in memory they do The bird cage is empty, the kennel too The swings has not moved, except in the wind Yelling and screaming, voices of our children Sunday morning, walking free by the creek's levee My sweet baby, you left me so lonely I sit here every day, watching time go by I have nothing left now since you left me The tears I cried as the flowers covered you Drowned me into the loneliness I now endure (For all old men and women who suffer in solitude) Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

*sigh* sweet man, this is so sad but true for these are feelings I have every day. Even with people all around the feeling of solitude is strong for there is not one to share the sweet beauties of life. *sigh* yes this one touches this Star's heart as I exist in solitude. Much love and hugs to you from me. Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams. http://path2riches.com |

Victoria, Yes it is not real good being lonely. Years of happiness can turn into loneliness, in no time whatsoever. Cheers. Startime, I am so sorry, I hope I did not make you feel too lonely. Remember, please that I am only an email away. Hugs. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

Daniel, the flowers growing over you, left me with such a sad feeling, I know it must be very hard for a spouse to be gone, young or old, It's in times like these that we need to reach out and offer our kind words. |

Daniel...you have touched upon the hardest thing to endure I think...the feelings of separation and aloneness after being with soemone for any length of time...sensational write |

You have put my fears in words. It was hard to see them in print. Yet I know when it comes I will have the most wonderful memories of a love that will never stop. |
