Lost in a world I call my own
Alone in a place that I called home
Loneliness in a crowded room
An empty heart, smells no perfume!
Where are friends when I need them most
The house lacks your presence, I feel like a ghost!
The dreams that we had, are shattered and gone
Time to pick up the pieces, Its time to move on!
How many times have I traveled this road
Starting again, with this heavy load
Its not like the carefree days of my youth
Its a lot harder now! ain't that the truth!
I'm battle worn, from fighting so long
Loneliness now is a familiar song
When we were together, love of my life!
I stood behind you through trouble and strife
Now no one to cook, no one to clean
No love or cuddles or self esteem
Emptiness' will anyone share
A life with a man who loved to care
a poem...introspective...remorseful... expressive... a sad one but a very good one to read...
..Beautiful poem Bob..I too share your lonliness...then I see you and many...I don`t feel lonely any more Bob.Keep your pen wet ever.
An excellent poem Bob, you have really captured the sadness of a broken relationship. Best wishes, Andrew
A heart-tugger Bob. Beautifully expressed. Keep those fine descriptions of emotive subjects right there in your work, because you excell at it. Greetings from Fay Slimm Corwall. U.K.
A wonderful poem even though the subject is sad and hard to accept. For one who has been 'alone' not because of death but because of departure, I find 'alone' a relief rather than a source of loneliness: -) and enjoy myself because of poetry. For the writer here who has lost a love so cherished, I marvel at the tender endearments woven in this poem and consider the piece well-thought of, an honor to have it shared here for us to read, and a work of art in itself because of its masterful rendition.10 ++++++++++
