Loneliness.

 

Darkness roams

Like a killer

In the night,

Bringing with it

A loyal companion -

Loneliness.

She'll be your friend,

Tonight.

She'll lie besides you

Whilst your pillow

Catches the tears.

She'll hold you tightly

In her arms,

So close that even

Your heart cannot scream.

There'll be no smiles

Tonight...

So maybe it's best,

Just to sleep.

Thats my reply to your poem Emma, I wrote this just now because I could feel every single word of what you wrote. Just something so simple can spark so much emotion in another person. You really do have a very special way with words. And the image that this created in my head was unreal.

 

I love you writing more and more with every poem I read. Lv Fluff.

 

 

A red rose for a blue lady...OK so it's not a rose...Tony

Emma

Thanks Tony, I'm not picky - any flower is a lovely gesture.  Thank you

 

Emma

Emma

Thanks Clive,

 

You know those late night feelings lol where you need to take time out.

Thanks Katy, you didn't interpret it wrong - one of those poems where sometimes you just need time out to maybe wallow for an hour or two - although you know its pointless.

 

Emma

So short and precise, yet really hits your heart, lovely. Yes we all have those times, and we all need those times. Your poem cptures them very well.  

Thanks Toni,  we certainly do need those times when we're feeling a bit down.
