“LONELINESS BECAME MY NAME” by Bill Charles ~~~~ Loneliness is my first name, and sadness is my friend, I live in my painful world, wondering when the hurt will end… The day that I was born, they said ‘BC’ was my name, but now I ponder why it’s changed, am I the one to blame… I found togetherness just a word, but one with much meaning, it was two people living together, but were they really seeing… The things that were happening, when harsh words were spoken, like love slowly dying, as two partners became heartbroken… So again I lie here this morning, in this very cold bed, I couldn’t sleep last night, my eyes hurt, they were all red… I remember when they were very soft blue, and clear, when I gazed into yours, as we held each other so near… But now the feelings are gone, sadness took over my life, I wonder if it will ever let go, letting me live without this strife… Perhaps I can change things, but will it ever be the same, I don’t really know, for it’s different, and it’s changed, I wonder if it happened, when “Loneliness Became My Name”… ~~~~ [This message has been edited by Bill Charles (edited 03-10-2001).] |

This peom expresses the feeling well, well done. Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning. |

And in your dreams an angel by the gentle name of hope shall hold you softly though the night shall give you strength to cope Shall whisper of a love that was meant only for you and in the dawn you'll find this promise just for you. *Nice write! To hold tomorrow we must first be willing to let go of yesterday. |

You captured the hole emptiness can create in an instant when someone you love is gone. Key is to fill the hole until it is covered, and the lonliness is buried, along with some memories. Very bittersweet, and well done. |

BillCharles~ When loneliness comes to call and does not find you there It will move on down the street looking for another heart to wear Be out and about when it searches for your regret It will not know your name unless you let it Very emotive penning, poet. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
