Loneliness

Loneliness! How does it work? Does loneliness affect you? Eating at your mind, Gnawing at your throat, Chewing at your heart, Grinding at you? Is loneliness likes a pest eating away at your mind? Have you ever just wanted something to disappear so bad that it frightens you? Don't be surprised at yourself, Loneliness is no respecter of person, it can happen to anyone, Whether you are in or out of love. Loneliness breaks your heart, and sore your eyes from crying. When loneliness peaks, you just wish there is some way around it. You run, scream and bawl, wanting to get away from it. Loneliness breeds sadness and even madness Making life's journey seemingly darker than ever before. But one thing is for sure, Because I am with you, Your love and companionship changed my loneliness to wholesomeness as we fell deeper in love.

When your alone no children, wife, husband etc. it's hard but just as we came into this world. We've got someone always when (if) we reach out to Him that someone is Jesus. "One can be alone but never lonely" "there's praise in words and words in praises" LUV THIS PIECE James

The power of loneliness . It disstabilises you for that period you accommodate it. Love comes like a light to subdue the power of dark loneliness. I like your last stanza , where you encourage us with the power of love. Keep it up Karen.
