THE SADNESS OF LONELINESS <br /> <br />The sadness of loneliness- <br />I had forgotten it- <br />I have been away for a long time <br />But now in the late afternoon <br />In the quiet and emptiness <br />Of the usually bustling streets <br />It comes back to me quietly- <br /> <br />The sadness of loneliness <br />That we are alone in the world <br />Each one of us alone <br />And that sometimes no matter <br />Where we are <br />We remember it- <br /> <br />The sadness of loneliness <br />A Quiet sadness <br />A sad sadness <br />A lonely sadness <br />Alone.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-sadness-of-loneliness/
