Loneliness

Loneliness

A Poem by kim grant

I think that of all the things one could possibly feel
there is no stronger feeling than that of loneliness

No matter what else occurs simultaneously
loneliness wins out

Life is only experienced in the presence of others
because being lonely isn't existing

It is simply feeling empty and longing
for the next chance to interact

And in case you could not tell
I am feeling lonely

indeed, 'loneliness wins' over all other feelings. You said the obvious in an effective way. I liked the way you ended the poem, "And in case you could not tell
I am feeling lonely". Nice read. keep sharing!

I would argue that grief is more powerful but that is not to disregard your feelings. Being lonely is a hard thing to face. I've caught myself many times wishing not to die alone.

I'll bet there are a lot of people on sites like these that come here to hear and interact or to hear another's words. Anything is better than being alone sometimes.
