Emilia James Poet Acrostic

Lonely

Little and slowly life ebbs away
Own self for company stayed another day.
Never a smile, never a visit,
Everyone too busy, peoples past existence.
Lonely is quiet, lonely doesn't speak,
Yearn for life connection my loneliness does seek.

Panagiota Romios September 16, 2021 at 2:56 AM Many people are lonely, not just the elderly! It’s a huge problem. You described it so well and accurately.We Think the internet is our best friend or lover? Huge mistake. We are only letters om a screen. People need people. They need to see mouths talks and socialize, perfect topic for these times Best wishes..Panagiota Emilia James September 17, 2021 at 4:30 AM Spot on Pangie and thank you. I agree with you on all what you said. The world seems to hide away from itself now. Take care. Emilia :)

Tom Cunningham September 15, 2021 at 7:56 AM You often hear of the elderly people living lonely lives with only the TV for company, a sad place to be. Good luck Emilia, hope week is going well. Tom Emilia James September 15, 2021 at 11:53 AM Yes and my heart goes out to them all and with now having to pay for their TV licence some may not even have that now. Week going well thank you (ask me again after I have drank the wine) lol. Emilia : )
