Listen to poem:

Inconsolable

I'm lying on my bed all alone.
Sad and Lonely,waiting here by the phone.
Praying silently,I hope it will ring.
Bring a message that will make my heart sing.

But I know,that my hopes are fading fast.
I am living in the past,so blue.
Oh my soul is an empty hollow shell.
Every day's a living hell without you

All my friends tell me don't worry and fret.
Find another who will make you forget.
But whenever I go out on a date,
All I think of is my previous mate.

Yes,I know that I should be moving on
She has really really gone away
Even though logic tells me,say goodbye.
All I do is sigh and cry every day.

Oh,if only I could say,what the heck.
I'm becoming an emotional wreck.
Every thought I have is bringing me down.
If I shed any more tears,I will drown.
On my face there is a permanent frown.
I'm the unhappiest man in the town.

Sad and Lonely  Sad and Lonely  Sad and Lonely

Gollly, Joe, my heart walked sad with you on this one. Lots of people feel this at some point tho, so putting it into words for them can help. Should be put to music. Hugs

Grief is horrible, especially bad I imagine when you see your loved one, and the love is not reciprocated. I hope this is fiction.
