[bodytext] => Loneliness Is like a bird. Some say if they were to fly They would be free But they would only be running On air. Maybe birds look at humans and wonder Why it is they cannot walk So upright So tall and true Like us. Loneliness has wings That can elevate And sedate you So you are free. But what have you gained By freedom? An aching heart. The wind howls across distant fields For no one, There is no beauty in sadness Pain is not poetry But an excuse To smile upon the things that tear the hearts of men Like us. Laughter is the only true beauty Laughter is the song of nature But laughter Like everything else that starts Must Someday End. Once we laughed, You and me Together- Us- No more. Your fire burned in me Now there is only a Cold Empty Space. The fire is Out And you have Ripped your love from me And left me here Crushed Crying Forgotten Free [comments] => 1 [counter] => 223 [topic] => 43 [informant] => amalyna [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
