Here I site alone amongst a crowd
People talking and friends all around
I try to talk but they can’t understand
Will I ever learn I can’t have the crown?
Tomorrow I’ll wonder who I am
But it’s something I won’t understand
Lovers I feel but their not mine
Loneliness is my fate for this time
Tonight is all
Find yourself
Wonder tomorrow
The party kicks. I’m alone
No lovers to call on the phone
A friend types, He’s the man
I’m alone. The silent understand
I never know just how to feel
But this contempt is real
I will keep living my life
But is it worth all the strife?
Can I survive? Is it for me?
The isolation—can I break free?
Am I a liar? Do you believe?
The Lonely Lord—can he be freed?
There’s a tomorrow
I know it’s there
My question is
Does anybody care?
Spend less time contemplating life and more time living it. And as for your final question, No.
Lonley Lord,
I love this.. Its a great style. I can see what every word means.. Yes I said *See*.. Its a great poem. I love the aloneness in the crowd. I think we have all been there.. In that spot in time,, alone an yet surrounded..Wanting, Needing,, Attention an just the knowledge that someone Is there an does See us...Hear us...Want to be with us... I want to see more of your writing. Keep it up~~!!!! *Smiles**
The concept of isolation within a crowd is a good one, but gets lost among incomplete metaphors and grammatical errors. I think this poem has potential, LonelyLord.
