Loneliness
Companions close maybe,
Comfort and inspiration give,
But inner meaning of life cries,
Live apart and alone.
None can answer your questions,
Nor make your decisions and choices,
Or your responsibilities take,
You are alone to relate.
All alone you believe or repine,
All alone you render an account,
Of all your deeds at the judgement,
You alone all by yourself.
God calls one man to stand for him,
Such a man faithful and worthy,
Would stand without sympathy,
Or encouragement, all alone.
Lone souls to the battle of truth.
Have out of disheartenment;
And despondency fought,
Shouts of victories are heard far and near.
