My FEELINGS
![]() The eternal quest of the human being is to shatter his loneliness ![]() I am utterly alone and condemned to a life of solitude | About MeThe eternal quest of the human being is to shatter his loneliness What torments my soul is its loneliness. The more it expands among friends and the daily habits or pleasures, the more, it seems to me, it flees me and retires into its fortress. The poet who lives in solitude, but who produces much, is the one who enjoys those treasures we bear in our bosom, but which forsake us when we give ourselves to others. When one yields oneself completely to one's soul, it opens itself to one, and then it is that the capricious thing allows one the greatest of good fortunes... that of sympathizing with others, of studying itself, of painting itself constantly in its works. mine were such small dreams and life wouldn’t grant me even those |
Language has created the word loneliness to express the pain of being alone, and the word solitude to express the glory of being alone.

Lonely Soul
You know..
Too many years now I've been alone.
I've waited for the sun to shine along the way,
upon my grave.
Alas, the darkness never fades!
So.. I've been laying alone,
for years and more,
in my grave, and I've been dreaming of her.
One day, a rose arose from my grave,
and in the darkness I heard a bird.
I've open my eyes, and my heart hit the drum.
"Hope? Is that you?" I thought to myself.
But it was a crow,
a crow so lonely and sad.
"Oh, is that you, my old friend?"
I've closed my eyes again,
and my heart did stopped.
I felt the coming storm and the rain.
Nothing, never really happened,
darkness was all I have seen.
Until the gray skies cried cold tears of pain.
I've heard steps then,
someone had come to my grave.
A girl it was, with long and dark dress.
With smiling and beautiful face.
I've reached for her hand,
she looked at me,
with warm, comforting eyes.
But my hand, she never took,
at my heart she didn't look.
What else is there for me to say?
She told me, she loved me, and then just gone away.
