I glance out to the world Where you await My words of loneliness Spoken louder than any other In my dreams I only find you 2/14/2024

My heart goes out to you my dear friend and i know how you miss your darling loved one - I understand completely, I would be a lost case without the love of my life. Your soul speaks to mine. Love and hugs, Jennifer.

Dear Eve, this is such a touching, poignant poem. The few, short lines really has an impact on the reader. The loneliness really does speak loudly here. A wonderful, heartfelt write. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you. :):)

We walk hand in hand you and I. Soon it will be my wife's seventh anniversary of her death. Strange though, I rarely dream of her. Not like you. A lovely poem.

Your poem conveyed a feeling of loneliness and yearning--a heartache that comes to fruition on a day like Valentine's Day. The last line really touched my heart. Short but evocative poem, hugs, Sara

Dear Eve, The raw longing and aching solitude your words convey are palpable. The stark contrast between "the world" and the singular entity you "await" speaks volumes about the intensity of your desire. Your poem evokes a powerful blend of yearning, isolation, and the desperate search for peace. It leaves me wondering about the "you" that occupies your dreams, about the nature of your longing, and the hope that dreams hold. Wonderful Poem! - Blessings, Daniel
