LONELY

A friend need me i as i gazed at the sun. so mad was he when the moon smiled i wondered why   he’s gone! who? My heart is cold my love’s sold am waiting by the shore my thoughts are gone with the flood   A sweet painful monster called loneliness after much stress is trying to make me less what manner of rest do poor me deserve?   lonely am i without anyone to brighten my smiles my fate is in the fog am so lonely and wishing that i wasn’t

deja vu

That lost friend has been haunting you for a while and probably always will. I salute your tribute to that friend. You have posted three poems called lonely and one called lonelyworld. This one is an edit. I recently realised I had posted 3 poems on the subject of loneliness. Lets both of us recognise that in cyberspace, at NeoPoet, we are surrounded by genuinely caring, talented poets. It's easy to make loneliness an addiction that feeds itself. Look around. cheers, Jess
