All loss

Loneliness something you can only enjoy alone

Aging bone, recognized only after time passes

Through pain's glasses that only you have known

Solitary death shown, tucked alone beneath grasses

Rootless, with the cold wind blown

Sown on waves that dissolve into the vast sea

Free with no anchors dropped or thrown

On my own no charity or condescending pity

Plays a major role in the deaths of many elderly folk, we are not wired to be alone for great lengths of time.
I lived alone for 18 months, had little money and would never impose on "friends" thus spent most weekends without seeing or talking to another human, it was shite.
Hope you are well Siren

Thank you for your read and comment they are most appreciated. Have lived both with and without people and both have their advantages.

loneliness is only beautiful when you choose it. Otherwise, we are all alone (but not at the same time). I think loneliness is a situation where people are afraid to ask for help, it has become scary to think that if we ask for help, people can use it. But in fact, when we ask for help, none of us are alone. Yet, none of us are buried with anyone else, are we? We are all alone in our heads. No matter how much we explain, everyone hears what we say from their own perspective.

"Free with no anchors dropped or thrown
On my own no charity or condescending pity"
very deep and meaningful. Yes, that explains it all. A perfect ending

Thank you so much for the read and especially for raising those good points that I have thought of before but were not on my mind at the time of the write. A very deep interpretation that I appreciate.

We're all built needing to belong, and along with all our escalating advancements loneliness is growing strong. Good write Soren.

This poem feels really deep and kind of sad. It talks about being alone and how time makes you feel older. The words make me think of someone who feels like they don’t belong anywhere, like a leaf in the wind or a wave in the sea, a tree in the middle of grass and a fish in a pond, all alone. The last part sounds like the person doesn’t want help, even if they’re lonely. It makes me wonder if being alone is good or bad. The rhymes are nice, and the poem feels serious but also peaceful in a way. It’s short, but it makes you think a lot! Lovely work, Soren. Enjoy your day ahead.

Thank you very much I think you caught the essence of this poem and you are right it is neither good or bad just what it is. Your words are most appreciated.

How tragic it is and - there's no remedy available. Unless of course, another good Samaritan steps forward out of his/her busy world.
