 ~The Lonely Of Alone~
This lonely feeling of alone Makes unhappy to me often known Sadness seems to be the tone Of late, this feel of, I am prone
For holidays are here to be Where joy and happy most do see Friends and family are the key To take away this feel of lonely
Yet, is the feel of alone in a crowd Where many faces are all around For there is not the special sound Of the one who makes my heart pound
Though every day on the phone I hear This voice of the one I hold dear Then, those times bring to me much cheer Yet not to the place of holding near
Yes, this lonely feeling of alone Makes unhappy to me often known Sadness seems to be the tone Of late, this feel of, I am prone

What a sad write especially at this time of the year but take heart because nothing is static in life and one never knows what's around the next bend.

The holidays are so hard for those in this situation. Sometimes, even those who have people around are lonely, too, depending on the circumstances. *hugstoyouEthel*....jo

Aww, Ethel Mae, altho' talking daily on the phone with your loved one is wonderful ~ it does not warm us as much as being held in their arms.
For what it may be worth, I am wrapping my arms around you!
Love, Linda

I think I finally got the hang of the holiday thing - instead of dwelling on the loss of my friend at this time of year, I find a lot of laughter and joy in remembering the good years we spent, and her shannigans. It takes each person their own time and space to get to a point of celebrating a loss, rather than staying in the hurt. Lovely graphic Ethel and lovely words.To see real beauty you must look with your heart. ~ Carpe diem ~

Ethel, I'm sorry you're alone and lonely. Will a long distance hug help?

the holiays can truly be hard, this I know and it is easy to be lonely when you are missing someone who is so important that your heart feels not whole without them around...
write it out, maybe that makes it not so lonely, or so I hope  Pepper "Somewhere, somehow, it should be possible to touch someone and never let go again. To hold someone, not for a moment but forever." Unknown
