Lonely am I
Lonely are the nights
Lonely are the days
Lonely am I, in so many ways
Lonely are the seasons
Lonely are the years
So lonely am I, that it brings tears.
Lonely is this place
Lonely is my life
Lonely am I, that I reach for a knife
Lonely is this court room
Lonely is my sentence
So lonely am I that I ask for repentance.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Robert Frost
Hi just read your poem and i loved it, great job.
Beautiful, so sad, so true. I have felt your feelings so many days and nights. i search for fo an end to my loneliness still.
this poem is deep i've felt lonely i am right now i think it will strike every one who is lonely and is reading the poem
this is deep, i can say im feeling lonely but not because i have nobody but because nobody listens. i hope its just writing and nothing else but words on papers
I can relate to your feelings of loneliness and despair. I too suffer from a feeling of hopelessness. Writing has always been an oulet for me. Thank you for sharing a part of your soul.
If some-one is willing to share what they feel, who the hell are you to call them loser's?
If anything it just goes to show that YOU Bri Blunt are just childish, immature and don't give a stuff about other people. By the way it IS an Amzing poem no matter what people like Bri say!
You two are a couple of losers.
It’s horrible to be lonely you can have people around you and still feel lonely, which has happened to me and no doubt plenty of other people as well. A true to life poem. well done
Very Nice Poem! ! ! ! ! It is truely a write piece of work.
o my goodness. That poem is beautiful. It seems to have personal meaning to you...
