Lonely
The sea stretches out forever,
As far as the eye can see,
Waves lapping gently at the shore,
And I'm alone as I can be.
The breeze whispers in the palms,
Making music in my ears,
I am in total solitude,
But I haven't any fears.
Little crabs scurry on the sand,
The sunset warms my heart,
I escape from a crowded, angry world,
To help my healing start.
I find solace all around me,
In the peace and beauty here,
I'm alone but I'm not lonely,
Worries and problems disappear.

I am participating in Theme Thursday.
The theme this week is: lonely.
Add your "lonely" post to participate.
Loneliness is sad, as much it is welcome sometimes.

ReplyDeleteYes...... I know that feeling of being on your own but definitely not lonely and yet I have sometimes experienced being in a crowd but feeling lonely.
ReplyDeleteDepends on what mood you are in, I suppose.
