Theme Thursday for June 12, 2014 - LONELY - June 11, 2014




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.

  3. Yes...... 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.
    Depends on what mood you are in, I suppose.
