  Loneliness!

User Rating:

10.0 /10
(3 votes)



  I abhor to be all alone by myself
Like an old bottle stood on the shelf

Me my swooning soul all alone
with none but my shadow clone

Just there twirling my thumbs
mindless and just plain dumb

every time my silhouette says
How shall we both pass the days

Lonely as ive been for years now
not knowing the where or the how

Now that my shadow too has gone
the dusky grey has left me forlorn

Wept an cried but zilch in return
My heart and soul hurtfully burn

What would be? As the time flies
shall I let bye gones be byes

Speak and tell me How to live
Seek someone who is there to give

surely someone better than me
must rub my eyes to clearly see

(Islamabad)

'I abhor to be all alone by myself
Like an old bottle stood on the shelf'

Strong immagination and rhymes
Which kept me reading.
I hope you stay on the shelf
Looking silently on everyone
Who wish to drink your inner wine.

You are the phenomenon. Vivid images, sad yet strong tone and a neat breakout of stanzas. Simply amazing and I just love it.

Just rub my eyes to see clearly, ....... Loneliness is finally to find us in crowland we dwell....as you may think it is blessing sometimes and part of healing for sick man.....it grows to development, indeed, we usually find some corner in seeking tranquility.....well done Doc.....10+++++

Saadat, you make me smile and cry at the same time. smile, due to your style and choice of words, cry becuase you speak of a universal feeling that we all go through at some point in life.

However, the true meaning of life we learn in those moments of utter loneliness, when we realise the only partnership one has is with Him.

lovely write

Ah, I felt the sadness in this poem for the lonesome life that we may all lead amidst the crowds... even though solitude can be bliss too.

'every time my silhouette says
How shall we both pass the days'

Find the desire within your heart. and reach for it.
You will find you are not alone.
And the lonely feeling
will soon pass.
If you smile for life...life will smile back.
Enjoy all you have
and what you desire will soon come to you
