So lonely is the girl who stands solitary in the crowded room waiting for him to come. So lonely is she when she stares at her watch. Is this another futile wait? So lonely is her heart as it cries out for another to welcome her into his open arms. So lonely is her empty mind as memories of the time they shared goes fleeting pass her eyes. So lonely is the girl who walked slowly through the crowd knowing that it was not meant to be. So lonely is she when she looks back. Did he mean a word he say? So lonely is her heart as her eyes welled up with tears that burnt deep down into her soul. So lonely is her mind where many empty promises laid mocking the silly naive girl inside. When would I be lonely no more? |

Mon Cherie, Not much worse than being lonely in a room full of people. Don't despair, this is a nice place. You expressed your experience well. I enjoyed.  |

Reminded me of the time I was going to meet my girlfriend in the mall and she was about fifteen minutes late and I was wondering where she was and then I remembered I had kept her waiting about ten or fifteen minutes the last time I had picked her up and so when she arrived I said "Are you trying to get even with me for the last time." And she said "That's right." James |

sometimes we are more lonely in a crowd of people than we are when we are quietly enjoying being alone with ourselves loneliness is very hard... and as i said in a poem, "the thing about loneliness is it doesn't really care".... i believe human companionship to be as vital to the human spirit as water and food are to the human body... the good thing about it is that there are many many people in this world and all we have to do is look around and there's someone right there to help alleviate the loneliness.. or then again, we could just stay home, eat peanut butter sandwiches and cry and sulk ... that's what i do any way... LOL!!!!!  thanks for the read.... very heartfelt writing here |

Larry: Yes, sometimes being with lots of people doesn't necessarily mean that you're not lonely. Roniece: You read this piece THREE times??!! :P Wow. Thanks! But are you sure it was not because my writing was fairly amateur? :P James: But it IS worth it if you know that she's going to turn up, and when she bestows that radiant smile upon you, you know you're willing to wait forever. Interloper: Yes, just the same as being with people yet feeling lonely, being alone doesn't mean you're lonely. And sometimes I do relish the time I can spend alone thinking. Doreen peri: Yes.... But I do much prefer Choc Chip ice cream :P but then again, I'd have to go on an exercise routine after that. Bummer! |
