Loneliness chases after
As I run ahead
Away from the blues
As fast as my running shoes
Will take me
Around the corner
Down the road I fly
With the wind behind
And no hills to climb
Loneliness chases after
Loneliness chases after
And catches me
How you run the chase is more important than the momentary capture. Running can be a very individual activity, but it seems you know how the chase the blues away. Your poem sure did it for me. Made me want to take a victory lap.
For me it's more depression than loneliness. But then I'm married.
A fast flow of lonliness making the reader feel it...good poem
Loneliness is the faster then all of us. And catches each of us eventually. A short but nice poem about a soulful human condition.
Loneliness - Simply a perceived state of mind.....self induced through periods of prolonged idleness! Nothing better than a quiet.........walk.........alone..........somewhere.........

Boy! Carol certainly has a unique and simple way of describing something so meaningful, deep, and complex. Looking forward to reading more of your poetry. The next time, I hope you're able to outrun the blues. Are those Nike shoes?
