She is now my best friend. <br />Always close to me <br />She's as reliable <br />as no one else can ever be. <br />She can outshine any one <br />and stand out in the largest crowd <br />Keeping everyone away from me <br />with an oppressive shroud <br />She's ever present but known to a very few <br />Overtaking their lives, <br />interfering in almost everything they do. <br />I often despise her <br />but usually not for long <br />For her control over my emotions <br />is much too strong. <br />Now that I have introduced you, <br />I hope you two will rarely meet. <br />For Loneliness is brutal, <br />she is neither warm nor sweet. <br />Keep her at a distance. <br />Don't make her part of your life. <br />Protect yourself with a loving partner, <br />a husband or a wife.<br /><br />Ghada Shahbender<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/meet-loneliness/
