PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I don't want to be alone right now, and I can't say just why.

I saw my kids walk to the park, and hoped I wouldn't die.

This empty feeling comes along and I feel tired and old

My family is all away and it makes my house feel cold

I work hard at what I do, but I am not employed.

My self esteem has suffered some. Isn't life to be enjoyed?

I need a hug, hon; please come home. I feel a little wilted.

Like the lady at the altar, left there feeling jilted.

I guess I live for loving you, and loving you feels good.

I love my Devon and Fleurette as much as anyone could.

But right now I am alone and I feel less than whole.

So please come home; I need a hug to slow this demanding toll.
