Loneliness

[Angharad]

[Angharad]

i wake to silence
and talk to an empty room
needing to be heard

stark reality
crouches in each dark corner
waiting for the sun

i watch the curtains
the edges will glow at dawn
an aubade for you

[metub4]

four walls once lively

sounds of laughter were present

loneliness prevails

[Marlene Cronkhite]

I'm lonely too. But I have things that I do. I'm a writer and get lost in my prose. I'm also an artist and love to paint. To me, loneliness is a state of mind that you can do something about. 

[metub4]

Good to hear from you

new blood to our haiku site

do you do haiku?

[Angharad]

waiting for each train
the dog wags for his master
gone so long ago

eager eyes scanning
nose seeking that well-loved scent
heart clinging to hope

[metub4]

no man's an island

we still have our attachments

connections to life

[Angharad]

a woman left lonely
she must do the best she can...
just her man's victim

she can't understand
when she's taken for granted...
she gets tired waiting

[Angharad]

as darkness descends
the bright sun shines uncaring
for the heart's demise

[metub4]

a void in darkness

touched by an errant sun beam

can brighten lone hearts

[metub4]

friendly thoughts prevail

overshadowing sunset

best wishes will rise

[Angharad]

fighting the madness
in this darkness without you...
lead me far from here

[Angharad]

A song you sent to me on my birthday once. I'm sending it back on a river of love.

this song is for you
far away so far away
you're my every thought
