Being Alone

I have no one with whom to share my fears
And I have cried far too many tears
Waiting in silence for someone to call
Hoping I may be invited to the ball

Whatever happened to all my friends?
I receive no replies to the texts I send
Have I really become such a bore?
Is that the reason, I am not sure.

Many people have told me that I am "nice"
So why do I lead such a lonely life
No one asks me if I want to join in
These days my phone hardly ever rings

I have no-one on whom I can depend
I have no-one that I still call a good friend
No-one comes to visit me at home
Doesn't anyone notice I am always alone?

Now when asked if I am ok
I am ashamed, too embarrassed to say
Surely they can see the pain in my eyes
Or do they choose to believe my pathetic lies

I silently scream out for someone to care
My thoughts and opinions I long to share
But no-one has taken the time to see
Being alone is destroying me

Hello karen...

Soul searching at its finest...

I had actually been researching solo vacation destinations...

Somewhere, where I could blend in and not care that no one notices me...

But, where men are a couple so I'm not having to be exposed to those lame pick up lines...

Maybe, a Gay island somewhere is just the place...

Being a woman alone I know I'd be safe and they can be a very fun crowd...

If you're into meeting someone go on a single meet singles thing...

Get ready for the weirdos and free drinks...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

I can deal with being alone, Karen.
I always have my canine companion of the past seventeen years, Gidget, my grumpy old female Chihuahua, to keep me company.
In fact, I rather prefer her company to that of most people I know.
Having said that, I can deal with being alone.
But I sure do hate being lonely.
