A diagram of loneliness

watching a movie just to feel a little less alone yet, I'm still alone in my mind I softly speak just to hear and imagine what it might feel like to hear the voice of someone someone who loves me and listens alone

Sometimes when you're alone it's nice to hear someone's voice, even if it's your own. Very nicely written, Jessica. Love this! ~Charlie

You constructed your concrete poem in just the right way that zeroes in on the feeling of being alone, yearning to hear another voice, to have a love in your life. My dad, likewise feels deeply after losing my mom. It’s been nearly 3 years. Hugs ~ Kim

Aw, thank you, Kim! I can only imagine your Dad's loneliness after losing your Mom and pray her memory will comfort his heart!
