The Lack of Love and Affection

The lack of love and affection Written By Dean Masciarelli November 10, 2009 (10:34am) The lack of love and affection Can truly bring you down And it can cause you To become emotionally unstable and withdrawn And even irritable at times And when this happens You tend to lose your bearings And your sense of direction And when it gets really bad You quit doing the things that you used to do all the time And you eventually become Isolated from everyone Because you have reached a point When you no longer feel like you belong And you just quit caring And this is when the good Lord will intervene if you will let him Because he can help you turn your life around So that your life has more meaning So that you can have a true sense of belonging Because the good Lord is the only one who will listen to all of your problems And he will help you find a solution to everything So that you can begin to mend and then feel brand new again Because you can always rely on him to lift you up from your burdens When you can no longer carry them on your own

You've got that right that He is there. It is nice to have a mate or another human that you can have love and support from but God is the One who is always there and always understands. Keep writing. Sara

Hi, Dean...I am so happy for your comment on my poetry. I am glad that someone has taken his time to find it very inspiring, enough to brighten his day. I love your poem...it is sad as many of my poems, but in writing we find that solace that others can't give us.. In the mist of darkness, He is the shining light that we seek! I will look forward to reading it when you'll post it on Poetry Soup. Good luck with it, and may God bless you. Warmest Regards, Andrew.
