Love Poem No. 50

_______________________

Alone

Have you ever felt so alone, yet so loved -

Simultaneously

Wondering - why does it have to be this way?

No one should have to feel alone --

endure the heartache and pain

the hurt and anger

Is it me?

Do I unknowingly push people away --

even the ones I love?

or

Is it you?

Not wanting to know me --

to see me --

to love me

 

Is it fate?

Am I destined to be alone --

forever?

Is that what is to be learned in this life --

or not

Am I to learn to accept loneliness --

or find a way to fight it?

What is my lesson?

How will I know?

Will I ever know?
