Loneliness

Alone I sit on the shore,

Not for the first time

Not for the last.

In my head lay a thirst

Even the very ocean before me cannot quench

My shattered dreams once again have lead me

To this place of solitude,

The place to shed all tears

Sitting on the sand with the heaven above me

I begin to feel the tugging of my soul

I feel the pain of the reality I have run from once more

Here I sit, alone once more asking forgiveness

And seeking the one I once held dear

I hold his memory strong, yes my love for him goes on

Yet his presence on earth is no more

Life is so unkind to rob me of one I loved all my life

And now on the shore all alone,

I find this place more a comfort than a home

And I sit here wishing to be whole once more

I dry my own tears now

And I search for your soul, once again...

And dreaming when one day I will be with you again......
