Lonely

Kelly

I surround myself with many people
thinking it'll fix me

To fill this empty whole
that's been dug very deeply

Always surrrounded with laughs and fun
even alowing a frown temporarily undone

Yet there's still something missing

Turning to God is what I do
hoping this prayer comes true

Lord God I need you
please take this darkness
and fill it with light

But at end of prayer
I'm still alone like the dead of night

So someone please
tell me what's wrong with me

Am I not being heard by God
or is this what's ment to be

To be completely Lonely

    Very nicely written, though very sad. A good poem, to be lonely is quite awfull.

      Thank you! I didn't expect any comments so again, thank you!

      Pathos excellently depicted poignantly. Loneliness dogging without relief. You aptly captured the problem so many suffer. Does the Lord not hear? Or, are we expecting something He did not promise? I frequently find that to be my case...awaiting what His Word never promised and the answer is right there.....His Word answers us and comforts us but feelings deceive and I never saw He promised good feelings. He said to His people I will never leave thee nor forsake thee...that's a fact, not a feeling. I suspect the deliverance and answer could be nearer than you realize.....as He says, this is my comfort in my affliction, Thy Word hath quickened me. I hope this might be helpful, not otherwise for you...I wish I could comfort you.

        Thank you so much for your comment, It's always good to be reinsured about his unconditional love and loyalty. Though I have much faith, Iv'e being going through rough times for months and that leaves me with much frustration without having a direct answer.

          Ya, I think I know what you mean.. Keep trusting in the Lord...in His Word, and may He keep, strengthen, and comfort you....and bring you to see His face with joy, as His Word promises His people.

          The imagery is delightful
