Welcome to Thursday Inspiration!
This week’s theme is lonely and the image is below. Here is the song snippet from “Lonely Is The Night,” a song written and performed by Billy Squier in 1981.
Lonely is the night when you find yourself alone
Your demons come to light and your mind is not your own
Lonely is the night when there’s no one left to call
You feel the time is right, say the writing’s on the wall

~*~
Jude’s SaturdaySymphony prompt is;
PONDEROUS THOUGHT
ROMANCE
Romance is all around us; in nature, in the night sky, and deep within each human heart.
This week, woo us with a tale of love,
Let your words inflame the reader’s heart,
And renew hope in love.
~*~*~*~
I feel alone but not lonely as I sit here
Your thoughts are never far from my mind
I miss your presence, but my heart has a connection
With you which is so strong that I can hear your thoughts
Sitting on the other side of the world, thousands of miles apart
I may be alone but your love keeps me from being lonely
~*~*~*~

I am not lonely
I feel your fingertips graze my back
I smell your hair
And your laugh is infectious
Your dance moves are perfectly terrible
Your voice is a comfort
And your words, even more-so
I am not lonely because you are always here
And although it may not be in body
Your memory will forever keep me company

I would rather be alone than lonely in the presence of others. Nice job.

I don’t mind being alone at all. Lonely just eats you up from the inside.

Ah, wonderful. I love how you play with being alone, and yet not lonely. A paradox I totally understand. 🙂 Thanks, Sadje.
