loneliness…
give me a clue of
your ceaseless origins
why do you always
make your way to me?
you are a path of cruelty
that sweeps across my chest,
a constant
although you wear many faces,
i always know
the feel of your touch
your cold fingers spread
across the base of my spine
like miniature sparks of lightening
your moon
has made many circles
around my solitude
your desperate night
quickly closes off
any escape route into the light
a visitor we all know too well
I am a dreamer, artist, and mother. I dance in the rain, spend too much time reading books, and live for my family. I am a gypsy, poet, musician, and artist. But most of all, I am a butterfly fairy. Come dream with me.

Those who shirk the concept of loneliness have a better chance of meeting themselves….. Not that I’m unsympathetic…. just my way of coping with this age old Visitor…..
I think there is a big difference between lonely and alone. Sometimes you can be surrounded by people and still feel lonely.. and many times we can be alone and feel all the world is with us. Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it.
