a long one...... The layer of ice cannot hold me up any longer i've worn out my welcome the feeling was too much for me to bare now i no longer feel anything i don't remember a time when i walked beside someone it's been so long i've been singing the same song for years maybe this is the day that my tune will change the road looked empty from then on the heat was probably getting to me i felt as if i couldn't breathe all the air was gone gravity had kept me from flying away i hadn't noticed how beautiful the sky was today i was possessed by my own loneliness the places that i know and go are all that i have the reflection of myself in my ocean of solitude reminds me that i will continue to be alone the world seems like it no longer exists this place feels so familiar when you shake it up the white flakes flare up and slowly descend upon this place that's my home sometimes i wish it would rain more often... i know somewhere a couple is in each other's arms dazed by the beauty of the skyline but i'll never understand why my life happens to be so empty lifeless objects and pictures with passerbys i only know by name will never be anywhere near enough to refer to my presence as life where are you when you look at the sky do you feel the same emptyness i do this dream i have my wish that i long to come true will be no longer when we cross each other the day that i meet that someone is the day i will cease to exist for the time being i'll do what i always have even though you seem so far away i'll walk on for one more day even if you are too far away |

this speaks lonely and hopeful - the emotion is palpable - it aches my heart - S |

Although this may not ring true to you, I have found that it is better to be lonely and with no one than it is to be unhappy with the wrong person. You expressed yourself so well through the written word, that I could deeply feel your loneliness. May the right person for you come into your life and shine his sun upon your days ~ and his moonbeams upon your nights. Sending you a big loving hug, EA |
