How Alone Am I Poem by Beena Jal

How Alone Am I

Rating: 4.3


The question is how alone am I?
In this world full of smiles
This melody of happy rhymes
The gateway of long gay miles
Runway of such colorful styles

The question is how alone am I?
The sunshine, till there is good
The world beside me stood
Tears of joy, sets my hood
Foreseeing that, what I could

The question is how alone am I?
Some times I wonder deep in my soul
What if my luck goes for a stroll
What if no longer am I so sure
Instead of flying I start to crawl
Many I know will glide away
Could they be blamed for not to stay
When chattering voices having nothing to say
When stars no longer guide my way

The question is how alone am I?
Those who stay by my side
And in me they still take pride
For me whose hands are open wide
They will then become my guide

The question is how alone am I?
Never alone shall I ever be
My God keeps an eye on me
And till I have my family
Never alone shall I ever be

The question is how alone am I? Some times I wonder deep in my soul What if my luck goes for a stroll What if no longer am I so sure Instead of flying I start to crawl Many I know will glide away Could they be blamed for not to stay When chattering voices having nothing to say When stars no longer guide my way what a meaningful and professionally written poem is this one. specially this stanza of poem is awesome and heart touching one..your talent should not let you feel lonely.. inspiring poetry is yours..

The question is not a new one; loneliness is the destiny of humankind since eternity. But you have given the answer in the last stanza of your poem. Your self-determination and self-discovery is admirable. Keep it up. Best Wishes Naseer

The question is how alone am I? Never alone shall I ever be My God keeps an eye on me And till I have my family Never alone shall I ever be what a sweet and prefessionally written within poetic frame... flow is melodic and the idea is quite impresive and like when you are ending your question of lonliness with having your God and family with you.. really a good poem..well done
