Alone #2
By Jeanette Cheezum
After he left
I sat alone
I ate alone
I lay alone
And cried
Alone.
Then one day
I noticed the sun
Felt it on my face
Watched young
Lovers unite
The world
Continued to turn
Babies were born
Wars are fought
And no one cares
If I sit alone
Eat alone
Or cry.
Wow, very powerful, Jeanette.
Thank you, Bobbie.
Nice one…the world goes on!
Thanks, Hie. Yes, it does.
