Those feelings of loneliness,
We have felt them all, I know.
The sense of being all alone,
Just seem to continue and grow.

The thoughts of the past just hurt,
And make me relive times of pain.
I was never really happy,
As if bounded by a chain.

I'm not saying that I dread life,
Or the love I get from friends.
That's all one may need in life,
But, sometimes, It all depends.

Books and movies make it worse,
Creating fiction love tales,
There seems to be no happy end,
For me, just heartbreak and tear trails.

The stories are amazing,
To entertain and dream.
But no story-line pairs that great,
In my crazy lifetime scheme.

But ,I don't need a white knight,
To save me on his steed.
A warm hug on a fall day,
Is all I'll ever need.

I really do hope and wish,
For that one day to appear.
Where I know I am happy,
And have every reason to cheer.

I'm not saying I need a man,
To laugh with, and enjoy life.
I just need to find my place,
And get through with all this strife.

I need to find my solid ground,
A strong and sturdy place.
Where I can calm down, be myself,
Not a very stressed out case.

Loneliness can feel bad,
And we have all felt it so.
Just TRY to smile and love,
It all starts with "Hello."
