loneliness is one of the worst feelings to have. there are several types of loneliness i've felt so far. as a small child i hated to be left alone. it was never for long. but minutes would seem like hours. this type of loneliness can't be shared. this type of loneliness is caused by being scared.

another type of loneliness is one where no one can help. there might be people around but they can't do anything for you. like when you get hurt. there might be some one there but you feel alone in your pain. at other times no one could help. like when i got in trouble and whipped with a belt.

i can remember the loneliness i felt when i was sick. i would stare out the window as my friends played about. i felt so lonely being stuck in the house.

as i got a little older i learned there was more ways to feel lonely. started to notice girls and soon felt lonely in a whole new way. i tried to talk to the girls i liked. would get so nervous i couldn't even talk. got home from school and up and down the street i would walk.

after getting my first real girlfriend i only felt lonely when we were apart. never felt lonely with her and don't know why i pushed her away. guess the days of partying i wasn't through. i did really love her and today i still do.

then started loosing people in my life. so lonely not being able to talk to friends who had passed. not being able to talk to them is a feeling i could do without. at times i will raise my head to the sky and shout.

now i am much older and i have four beautiful children. im not with the mother anymore. the two youngest ones have to visit their mother on most weekends. the other two are teens who will hang out with friends so their not always around. this is another lonely feeling i've found.

now i have no woman, people have passed, at times i have no kids, no one to talk to, and im selling my home. all this combined makes for the loneliest feeling i've ever known!!!
