Sitting at a desk in a brightly lit room,
Surrounded by people, but still so alone...
Fighting a feeling of impending doom;
A chill in the room that cuts to the bone.
I've not seen your face in many a day.
The thought of you makes my heart ache so.
Missing your voice; it' so hard to be gay.
Happiness escapes wherever I go.
Dining alone in a quiet cafe'.
Delicious food still seems so bland.
Brown briefcase; a nice attache'.
Fighting to meet life's many demands.
I'm trying to pull myself together
Before I completely fall apart.
Battling to stay above the weather
That brings a chill to my lonely heart.
very nice poem...but this too shall pass, don't worry...congrats on being poem of the day!
the melancholic mind of a person, who has been removed from the comfort zone. The feelings are very true, but we can overcome it in a matter of a few days, months and years, what I have to write after reading this poem! ! If i had read it during the days of imperfection, i could have been severely demotivated and might sing along with you dear, now I recite your poem as the incident of the past! ! That is the nature! ! well expressed as I had felt the chill in bones too! ! !
I love this. This is exactly how I feel at times. Thank you for your comment on mine. It actually made me feel less alone in a crowded room.
The climate of love can be very cold indeed when the heart is longing in vain. This is a strong piece that works as a whole to create the pain and loneliness of separation very effectively and poetically. The images and situations portrayed all sharpen the sense of a painful severing. jim
A very heart wrenching poignant write where you perfectly expressed your loneliness with those elaborate lines.Wishing you to have the courage to fight it out.
Loneliness depicted in some beautiful lines- - - - Dining alone in a quiet cafe Delicious food still seems so bland Brown briefcase and nice attache Fighting to meet life's many demands - - - -When loved one remains away for long loneliness creeps in and life seems to lose its charm in spite of all available comforts.
The feeling of loneliness is awkward you feel it in a crowd of people, the alienation of minds and thoughts on what is going on around you leaves you alone, Awesome poem
Profound feelings expressed in very lyrical muse. Be always blessed.

This is a very dangerous poem for the writer. I cannot recommend it. But that isn't the half of it. This poem is a near disaster from a technical standpoint. One verse should be removed completely because it isn't needed. Two others are not as focused as they need to be. I can't say more. I just hope it goes for repairs. GW62
