Loneliness (x22)
A full life. we're told, she leads
And of having many friends she boasts
So why is she sitting in the corner, all alone
And white as a ghost
Hands in prayer joined as for support she pleads
But answers from the walls she gets none
For her behaviour, once so honorable
Became gradually so despicable
And now they're all gone.
And of having many friends she boasts
So why is she sitting in the corner, all alone
And white as a ghost
Hands in prayer joined as for support she pleads
But answers from the walls she gets none
For her behaviour, once so honorable
Became gradually so despicable
And now they're all gone.

If some people dont share our thoughts, this dosn't mean we dont have friends,The sad thing that some poets dont even read our thoughts ,or dont taste the wise thoughts and hose far from being erotic, its so sad such loneliness standing aloof; brooding over useless things,We might broadcast on strange, or very high frequency, that some people find them too much higher to catch !!!
Stay happy my friend

Maybe what drew people away from her was her '' increasingly despicable behaviour''

Yes, i think so. a smile can effectively draw much company than having a pretty look.
Thanks for sharing Robert.

The facade of some folks can crumble easily when more difficult times come along. It's like that Alanis Morissette song that says it's "strangely exciting to watch the stoic squirm".
