ALONE

ALONE

Being or feeling alone is one of the saddest places to be. You can have all the luxury in the world, but if you don't have anyone to share it with, you have nothing. The need for human companionship is universal. In ancient times, people stuck together because they literally needed each other to survive. In today's world, we tend to spread out and live more isolated lifestyles. In some ways this is a luxury. In other ways we had it better when we lived in close proximity. Humans are creatures of community and need each other for companionship. I hope and pray that none of my friends ever have to be alone in their lives….

As the starry night watches
I am alone

I know I’ll always be

The meaning is unknown

The light I cannot see

   

I am trapped within myself

Never to escape,

A book upon a shelf

That no one can read

I wish that none will lead a life

That’s similar to mine

There’s no need for such pain and strife

It proves nothing divine

If you live a life full of love

Then you are why you are  here

Well maybe not exactly

But even if the journey is sincere

It’s worth all the pain

Where it takes us no one knows

And no one ever will

All I know is that it’s right

Righteousness I’ll never feel

As I lay
Here in the open air

Surrounded by dark and shifting clouds

I can still see

My bright star shining

And even when I can't see it

It's always watching me

There for me

Is that my sign of hope?

But why continue the pursuit?

Why live? In this way

I guess I’ll never know

 I guess I can't say

But I continue to persist

To eat, to breath, to sleep

Some things I can’t resist

Some things are sown in deep

I wish the night would never end

The wind flows over me

I hear it say

There's nowhere in the world I have to be

Softly it calls for me

Go to sleep
