Premium Member The Lonesome Whippoorwill Cries Out To His Long Lost Love
In the darkness of the night, with the beautiful stars above. There's a lonesome Whippoorwill. Calling out for his Dear love. Crooning songs he sadly sings. Wishing she comes back to him. Memories of her by his side. Pained his heart way deep inside. Each night he wonders why? She doesn't answer or replies! Minutes turned into hours, there's no response! "Oh please...

Reflections of the Past, Visions of the Future
I thought this noxious pain would abandon my agonized heart after a while I thought if I could write better it would ease on me Maybe my tacks were wrong, I couldn't find my way to exist, still a character of a juvenile They mocked my will, my reasons, my need to smile No matter how old, never will...

Premium Member Lonesome, Lost and Blue
Sea, who breaks against the shore, reveals the anguish soul’s soundless urge to feel the mist of impatient waves remembering the solace, the soothing, the sanctity beautiful waters scraping against the sand – a sensitive peace that has the upper hand, the whimsical story grace falling across the land… mountains, climbing toward the summer sky, raised hesitant to softly cry, moaning...

“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.” —Maya Angelou Lonesomeness dreads the twinkling afore sleep falls, Soft and soundless, blessing with the hues of night, Rustling peace through the soul after darkness calls. Wonders shimmering, more lovely than starlight, In dreams, where hope’s music plays its gentle notes, Stirring...

Premium Member Lonesome Path
I tread a lonesome path, as heartache beats in haunting echoes, searching for solitude. As the world retreats from view, sorrows increase when you're unseen. I've become a ghost on distant shores. Moonlight my last trusted confidant, stars a mentor on silent nights. I hear wayward winds whisper, unspoken soothing rhythms, but vibes feel barren, bare and broken. A sole soul, lost in time. ...

Death Of The Old Cowboy On The Lonesome Range Ravenous wolf pack, ripping and tearing red-stain bloody meat from his dead horse flank much better the dead horse than me he thought as he looked up at hot sun glaring. Dreaming now, his beautiful gal holding tight aching head laid in her luxurious lap mused what sorry cowboy sight this is an old...

Lonesome Trails
LONESOME TRAILS   Trails of a long lonesome journey, Still has memoirs, leaving imprints behind. Ensuing the winding path, through avalanche and gorge far and wide, a lone traveller seeking solace, betwixt the expanse of the world.   The wind muttered secrets, carrying echoes of buried tales, each step leaving an ineffaceable mark, embossed upon the tapestry of time. Through thick forests of ambiguity, and deserts of unanswered questions, In...
