Poems about loneliness seeking friendly advice. Friendly advice and comments have been requested for these poems.
Reasons
A shot to clear my mind
A smoke to ease the thoughts
A thunderstorm surrounds me
Crying with me cause I’m lost
A prayer to give me hope
A meal to survive
A coffee that keeps me awake
To write my pain at night
A husband that I lean on
A child to make it clear
There’s more to life than I expect
Although at times not clear
A heart that is no longer mine
I had to give away
I know he would care for it more
Than I would anyway
A smile to mask the grieving
A laughter made of lies ...
A smoke to ease the thoughts
A thunderstorm surrounds me
Crying with me cause I’m lost
A prayer to give me hope

A coffee that keeps me awake
To write my pain at night
A husband that I lean on
A child to make it clear
There’s more to life than I expect
Although at times not clear
A heart that is no longer mine
I had to give away
I know he would care for it more
Than I would anyway
A smile to mask the grieving
A laughter made of lies ...

Alone In Hospice
Through the unlit forest of the mind's labyrinth
other side of one's eye, the beggar of twilight
shadow of dark rags awaits one's fate
in headwinds of loneliness death and despair
swallowing the soul with haunting echoes
screaming from the bowery in Gotham
alone in the hospice awaiting the gospel
other side of one's eye, the beggar of twilight
shadow of dark rags awaits one's fate
in headwinds of loneliness death and despair
swallowing the soul with haunting echoes
screaming from the bowery in Gotham
alone in the hospice awaiting the gospel

Quiet Cravings
Scrolling the possibilities,
but rarely to act
Sometimes fantasy
is just enough to carry you through
And the more time without contact
the more you stay confined
to that controlled environment
With spring on the tease,
that itch will return,
not that it ever leaves
But I won't make a prediction,
better to ride
on chance.

Night has fallen,
I wait for sound.
I hear just the ocean,
These sounds surround.
The waves of feeling Crash all around.
My problem,
Lies in the deep.
-
exploitation is, Where emotion lives
Make them do.
Make them say.
No thoughts engage.
Don't let it slip out.
If you run hard,
If you run far,
I could say all is well and feel like you are on my side.
Don't let it slip out,
Just trust me I know.

I make no sound.
My fear's an ocean-
Of unreal per-portions, ...

Glare from the Willow Tree
As I lie in a spot designated only for me,
The peering eyes from another send a taser through my chest.
"Who's there?"
No reply.
The grass shivers with the wind, frightened and alone,
While the Willow tree ahead grows massive in size.
I can't escape it's grasp.
I'm in a trance.
"Let me free!"
The coo of the raven immediately sends my heart out of shock.
It's been watching with a grimacing look,
Disapproval and disappointment liters the air.
Standing up, I cast a stone that lies perfectly next to the root, ...

chilled bones
the wind came calling today
wailing upon my pain
& I didn't know what to say
so I sat in her embrace
& wept
feeling a bit upended today...

the blade is unsheathed
the blade
is unsheathed,
feel it
pushing
in between
your ribs,
right to
your soul,
cutting you
deeper
with each
vicious word,
the
church
doors close.

The Search
(for Henry Cavill)
My love.
Why did you leave me here alone?
I do not know how many years ago
we were together.
I do know I once shared your bed.
You wrapped me safely
in your strong arms
and protected me against a world
congested by cold hearts
and even colder intentions.
For centuries,
I searched for you.
But you left me
with this gut-wrenching emptiness
like a hunger never to be sated
by any food.
I scanned the faces of men
for your...

What Comes After
It was never the throws of passion
that we shared together that I miss
most about you, it was what came
after...
It wasn't the long walks in the woods
to get lost together that I remember
most about our weekend getaways,
it was what came after...
It wasn't being able to see your face
after too many hours at work that
got me threw the days, it was what
came after...
It was the look in your eyes as we
stared endlessly at each other for
what seemed like an eternity on end
It was the lack of fear...
that we shared together that I miss
most about you, it was what came
after...
It wasn't the long walks in the woods
to get lost together that I remember

Sunk Deep in Baton Rouge
Sunk Deep in Baton Rouge
“Hello Pops. Sorry to intrude on my wonderfully studious young man in the middle of deep tort contemplations, but I have a little problem. Our house has flooded. So here I am with no adult assistance with our three-year-old son and the water, water is everywhere to borrow a phrase from Coleridge’s ‘Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner.’ Could you get in that wonderful jalopy your Mom bought for us and take us to dry ground?”
“The car is flooded as well I am afraid. I am at the chapel on campus. Wait just a short while and I am sure the car will revive...

Sugar Festival Night
Sugar Festival Night
“Bob, why do you sit there reading news magazines all afternoon? Wouldn’t chatting with your beautiful wife be more interesting? You did marry me after all. And we are in Turkey. We speak the language. Let’s go out and mingle with the crowd.”
“Pat, I know being home while I am working at the base must get lonely. But I will make it up to you. Tonight we are going to the Sugar Festival.”
“I’ve heard about it from the general’s wife while gardening and being patient for your return as a proper wife should.”
“There will be dancers,...

Better Elsewhere
A whole different life - in dreams
Cinnamon complexions
physical inspections
Never a doubt,
I am where I belong
The cruelty of waking
to an empty room
Insignificant
and unloved
It wasn't always this way,
but it is.
