Alone
By Maureen
She was left alone when she was only five, so scared, she cried. A child can't survive... alone. She was quiet and shy when she was ten. She cried because she had no friends... She was alone. When she was fifteen, afraid of the date scene, she didn't trust men... alone, again. Had her first date when she was 23, found it hard to believe that her lover wouldn't leave her alone. Although he said his love was true, so much pain he put her through! There were many weeks when he didn't call and she was all alone. Love wasn't what she thought it would be, she seldom had his company, she decided she would rather be alone. Now this woman is fifty-one, she doesn't know what it's like to have fun. I wonder what happiness she might have known if, at the age of five, she hadn't been left alone. ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ "Loneliness is the most terrible poverty!" #1 Isolation Written September 9th, 2001 © on Sep 09 2001 02:44 PM PST, Maureen Halasovski 0 • 18 • 1
