Defining Loneliness

I have no words...

Defining Loneliness

Its isn't a game we seek to grab at a heart,
To take from someone and quickly depart.
I want the slow kiss the walk in the sand,
The joint effort in friendship holding a hand.

A sense of intimacy two souls shall converse,
The pleasure of conversation not in reverse.
The flowers that shed tears of a feeling of joy,
The sharing of emotions felt not as a decoy.

The warmth of a body the touch of the skin,
The expressions of love held deep within.
All these things in us are like music in action,
Incomplete our feeling we feel no refraction.

Watching others enjoying a combination of two,
Acting together seeing their life as one through.
Alone we sit wanting to feel inside the heartbeat,
Knowing staying alone death is sitting at our feet.

This is truly beautiful in its sadness wants and needS to be loved and to be a. Couple
In love
Remember though There is always two sides to a story
Always two pieces that fit the puzzle
There is compromise in being a couple
Lots of hard work
Forgiveness
Loyalty
Faults list goes on !

Just saying it’s not all a bed of roses to have a partner but I know how you feel
I’ve felt it many times over the years

But then again I feel sad at times lonely even now with a partner you can feel alone Lonely in a relationship

I hope you find that special someone you dream of

Be happy in yourself love yourself and that love will find you 🙏

Love your poem you expressed it well

I feel there is mixed emotions in any relationship. There has to be that strong foundation to give way to make things run smooth. As for me I am content yet missing... Happy yet sad... Today I am just me :)

Thank you for the review!

"Knowing staying alone death is sitting at our feet."
This line made me go "Oof."
I really love the idea of death at one's feet. A very heavy, solemn feeling- it hit me hard.

Great poem, the last line will stay with me for quite a while I think.
