Just another one of those nights...
I'll feel better in the morning. ;)
It's a kind of loneliness that defies explanation Even in the midst of a social whirl and surrounded by people I feel so very alone. How much more when I come home?
I ache to feel your arms around me, and to kiss your lips. I crave the feel of your body pressed firm against mine Skin to skin... To make love until all our passion is spent and then to fall asleep entwined like a pair of kittens
We did not too long ago...
I remember well Waking to your scent Looking at your face - so boyish in slumber and smiling to myself Content
How hard it is to go to bed alone holding tight to memories and a teddy bear (Tonight in tears) I pray to God each time and hope with all my heart He hears...
Wow, so many reviews. I guess we all can relate.
I find myself once again alone. I hope life allows me to share that with someone again one day. If not, I won't live for an eternity...
it will just seem that way.
Home should be where he is...I know and I share your tears.

Chanti, this is such a beautiful poetic description of what goes on in the mind and heart when we are missing our other half, that special person who completes who we are. You are so right, it's "the kind of lonliness that defies explanation." Well done!

Of kittens and teddy bears, this shows so distinctly the innocence yet the challenge of being apart from the ones we love, romantical as well as familial. blessin's,

Wow Chants...this write goes deep...Don't quite know what to say except I missing you like crazy. It'll just be a couple of weeks my Snuggles, till we're back together again. Every minute away from you seems like an eternity. I love you so very much and don't ever want to be apart again....guess you're stuck with me ;)
Oh so beautiful in all its haunting sadness Chanti! The tumultuos emotion expressed here is rather well known! I still have all my Teddy Bears (and body pillow too :0). I am glad I dropped on in!

How hauntingly beautiful ~Chanti. You don't write often, but when you do, you blow my mind away with your discriptive verse! The bed is no place to be alone, sleep on the couch. Reserve that space for someone to share it with. I pray God sends you someone to share your space real soon. Woman was not meant to be alone. (in my opinion!)
To be able to connect in such a way with someone is one of Gods greatest gifts to humankind. "To Bed Alone" is a delightful unveiling of a tender souls innermost yearnings. Blessings to you Poet ...
A feeling that i can relate to all to well...emotionally effective..Its’ effectiveness obtrusively defined!!

My my, you have captured something that was reverberating around my own head. Distance is a difficult one to overcome, carrying on in the everyday, feeling alone in a crowd whilst your heart is somewhere else,...hmm not an easy task or theme...but ...loneliness is a cold bedmate so cuddle teddy and hold tight to those warm memories, they do help you to sleep and new ones are just around the corner. Beautifully written. Panda :)x
This stirs my empathy for all those who long to be with someone...my father battles this lonliness every night since my mom passed...his days he keeps busy...its the nights that keep him awake...longing to hold her again~
Sad sad painting in words...Chanti~
Love and Peace~

I am sure many can feel and reflect back on your thoughts, the lonely nights can weigh on the mind and heart, you have expressed this well within this poem...
Chanti, I so liked this piece...I've had the same feelings in my younger days...it burns like fire!!! and, no that loneliness can never be filled. Thanks for sharing such a nice poem.
I liked this very much - especially the two kittens line - i remember the feeling of longing and loneliness, missing someone, when reading your poem, and i remember a little kitten that i lived with not long ago, and i think you may have inspired a little poem in me! Thank you Chanti, Nicky x
