Not Alone

They say that it is within our human nature to believe in a greater being; therefore this poem came about.

Stop.

Listen.

Close your eyes.

Can you hear it?

The back and forth motion

Of the waves trying to soothe your soul?

The drops of rain against the window

Encouraging your ever step?

The chirping of the birds

Singing you a new melody?

And the voice of your love one

Giving you comfort and care?

Stop.

Feel.

Close your eyes?

Can you feel it?

The gentle warmth of the sun rays

Trying heat up your cloudiest days?

The smooth stroke of the wind

Cooling and cuddling you in an embrace?

And there are the hands of your maker

Stretching out towards you with the touch of others

After all this, how can you proclaim?

A feeling a loneliness

When everything around us

Just reminds us that we are not alone.

For not only do you have those things of God

But you have a friend that reminds you of them

So get up and dance, for it is not a day of gloom

But a day of happiness, for once again we can state

That we are positive that we are not alone!

I can feel the emotions rip through. Yet there is some hope left at the end. So very nicely written!
