Nice poem . It's not a poem JulieABush. I wouldn't know how to write a poem even if I wanted to. It's raw emotions needing to escape. Needing to flood the world... But thank you, anyway. You are so very kind! |

I stood there
watching the faces of strangers walking on the platform. Getting on trains Going to destinations Unknown to me. Face, after face, after face having their own lives to live having their own dreams their own goals. I searched for your face in the crowd time going by getting more and more disappointed not seeing you not hearing your voice the voice that gave me a reason to dream Hurry! Hurry, I thought... hoping that my thought could reach you. Fearing that it couldn't. And then I saw you An angel in the crowd Causing my heart to start skipping beats Walking closer and closer and closer You made it on time! You made it on time! The voice of the conductor in the distance letting you know All aboard... The sound of the engines starting barely covering the sound of my heart in my chest. I wanted to tell you how much I love you. The words never left my lips... You went on walking Passing by Just another face in the crowd You didn't even turn to look at me And my heart stopped For it had no purpose to keep on beating... Once more The train left without any passenger........ (Thank you for letting me listen to your voice....) |

Awwww CAK ... that is so heartfelt .. hopefully your train will slow just a little to let someone on board Hey Blondey111, Thank you for your kind words. The train has room for one passenger only. I'm in the "getting rejected" phase... again It's always for one reason or another. Then, the tears will follow And the journey begins again... for the next crash. Until death puts an end to it... (I hope you are a serious fan of Jacinda Ardern!!! ) |

You asked me to slow down.
I can't slow down. I won't slow down. Life is too short for slow downs. And I'm running out of it, so fast... You see... Jonathan, the seagull has always been restless in my mind, in this crazy, crazy journey of mine. I meet people. Some of them I like. Most of them I don't. I attack those I like, with my emotions. The rest are luckier. I get rejected. I pay the price of my crime. I digest the pain. I wipe my eyes. I move on. If you are brave enough join me onboard my speeding train you will enjoy the adrenaline of moving at a 1000 miles an hour. Beware, though! We may crash and burn at the next steep turn, or, if we are lucky, we will make it to the end. All flushed, excited, filled with emotions, one can only enjoy in a high speed ride. I'd choose the security of walking, if I were you. You told me that patience is a virtue, It may be so, But I'm not virtuous my love. I'm so sorry I upset you. You, were one of the unlucky ones. I liked you... I will drink my next tear to your health... |

You will always have friends here. I read your profile and I think you should hang out in the forums to feel that important sense of belonging. Share your poetry, be shocked and laugh here. Fellow poet here x YOU, are a poet, my lady. I'm not... Your encouraging words are very kind and hard to believe, right now. Thank you for taking the time to read what I wrote and respond to me! |

I wouldn't know about the other members of this forum, but I'm in your shoes. I do have a few friends in real life who call me to check up on me every few days - "Are you ok?", "I'm ok","Good!" - but I miss those things that one would consider unimportant, someone to say "Good Morning!" and "Good Night!" and hear it back from her. Someone who's worried enough when I have a chest pain to ask me "Should we go to the doctor?"... I'm still not used to the fact that nobody is around in my apartment, that when I go to bed at night I'll be by myself and when I wake up in the morning I won't get to see anybody. I spent long periods of my life alone but I was younger and things like that didn't matter that much. Now they do. I'm not sure if it's because I feel the end approaching. Maybe.... That's good to know maybwecan and thank you for the info! But since I'm not looking for a face to face relationship, the location of any member, deciding to befriend me, doesn't really make a difference I interpret your words above as those of someone not looking for an LDR...and my limited experience with women persuades me that if they are local, a face to face is unavoidable... getting an image of a guy painting a floor getting himself into a corner with no way out but to walk across the painted floor...but I have certainly been wrong before... I didn't say it's easy. But if one pays attention to the non-tangible, if one pays attention to what the food of the mind and the soul and the heart is, it certainly is doable. I loved your image of the painted floor. The secret here is that... I can fly... |

a check using the free search feature here for your location returned more than 40 pages of Mingle members...the listings go from the most recent online members to those who have not been online for a while... That's good to know maybwecan and thank you for the info! But since I'm not looking for a face to face relationship, the location of any member, deciding to befriend me, doesn't really make a difference. |

I guess I just think everyone is like me. "All alone in this World." I wouldn't know about the other members of this forum, but I'm in your shoes.

"It's the same old song, but with a different meaning since you been gone." Ya I see not much has changed since I last used one of these sites. Lonely, desperados being preyed upon by scammers. It's a good thing I have some experience in these matters and I know what to expect. But every once in awhile I slip up. Thank you for your insight though it is kind of puzzling. Your reference to "Lonely desperados being preyed upon by scammers" makes me wonder whether you place me on the "Lonely desperados" side or on the "scammers" one. If it's the former, I'll accept it with a grain of salt. If it's the latter one, I wonder what gave you that idea. And as my friend Trixie says: "Be kind to each other". |

Thanks for your kind words It's not "kind words" Larsi666. It's how everybody should feel for you and the rest of the nurses. The gratitude is all mine! |

Hi CAK, this is the Welcome forum, so welcome and good luck Thank you mzrosie for your welcoming me and your wishes! Every little something, from anyone on this site, makes loneliness a little more bearable. Thank you! |

I don't know that Jonathan fella and I could work as a scarecrow Regardless, welcome on board Jonathan was my inspiration when I was younger and thinking that I could conquer the universe. (Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach) 1. I don't think I can afford to pay you for your services. 2. Do you think you can scare away the pain and the loneliness? Thank you so much for your message! 1. Some cheesecake for me and some treats for my cats will do 2. Dunno, pain is relative and I work as a nurse 1. Deal! 2. Thank you and all the other nurses around the world for your selfless work during the pandemic. If it wasn't for you all, things would be much much worse for all of us! |
