LONELINESS!!

I thought I left behind this feeling
and buried it down so deep
covered it with stronger emotions
and weighed it down with strength


There were times when I often laughed at it
and treated it like a helpless rag doll
brick by brick I had built  a strong wall
to stop it  bouncing on me like a ball

But sometimes in moments of weakness
through all those strong emotional walls
would break out this stronger monster
sometimes people even  called it loneliness !


I wonder how many people out there
are fighting this very same monster
in different ways ,  and at different times
can we all get together and kill it sometime ?

Some are lonely for a family, some for a mate
some because they are always a little late
others have lost someone dear to them
and loneliness stalks them down !


I wonder when I can win this war
and find a way to get the monster called loneliness
there are ways and means ,  but the sure shot path
eludes me ,  right now I'm a little lost !
