My Song

There's no one out there that really cares. I hold it together by a thread. Listen to everyone else's burdens. I am a very deep person. I am music, and music is me. This music is the only thing that understands me. My struggles no one understands. An empath who picks up everyone else's vibes. Without them, knowing I know what is truly going on inside of them. I feel their pain, I feel their joy. Going down this path called life. I have struggled from the day I came into this world. Almost died at birth, a sign for the rest of my life that I would struggle. I wear my heart on my sleeve. So much love to give, and no one to give it to. Or am I really giving love? I'm there for others and listen to their complaints., their struggles and their pain. I cry, mostly on the inside, so no one sees. I hide my pain behind my smile. Sometimes the tears can't help but fall and then the pain shows. Only do I let the tears fall when I'm alone. All I ever wanted. Was someone to love me for me. A partner for life that understands me. Does he really exist? At the age of 60 I don't think so. I have had people claim they loved me, but it was fake. I hate fake people. Even as I sit here and write this, the tears rolling down my face. Became a truck driver to get away from the people. Does it even matter? No one really cares. The friends that I thought I had, really never were. When all they did was use me and then leave. Money? Who cares about money. I don't! I don't care about diamonds or furs or luxuries. All I care about is making my living and paying my bills. I guess I was born for loneliness, and to forever be alone. My heart aches in unbelief. I sit and watch the people. Some I can read them and know what their life is about. Others I look at and wonder. I look at nature and think how great is our God. But why hasn't HE brought me my partner? I still keep the faith though. Where do I go from here? This is my song.

It's a terribly sad and lonely song Letitia. I can only tell you what I've found. In my twenties I became one of Jehovah's Witnesses and was accepted into an international brotherhood of diverse peoples and cultures who live in peace, even in the divisive and troubled world. Why not give a listen next time they stop by? No one should live forever lonely
