Loneliness

For some reason
I have become friends with Loneliness
It follows me around
Like if it has no one
Else to follow
It never turns its back on me
It never has a loud word to say
And it never gets mad at me
When I ask it to stay home
On the days I come over
To see you

Oh....ouch.

And hugs for the message too.

I don't think I am so much friends with loneliness as it is such a familiar companion, that I have to stop myself from stomping my feet at company...

I understand this'n all too well.

so much said in so few poetically perfect chosen words...
your closing lines impact reads like a kick in the chest...
Like Sen, I wish I could say I cant relate...
but then I guess that means we could say we're in good company while were alone.
(poetic irony?)
well done A2...so good to see you posting again.

I refuse to accept that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism & war that the daybreak of peace can never be reality.
