Three Things Challenge #M920

ALONE
HALF-HEARTED
DAYDREAM

As I sit here alone,
I daydream about the future,
I wonder what it might hold,
What needs to be done and not be done half-hearted.

Will there be laughter echoing in the air,
Or challenges that test my will and care?
Paths untraveled, waiting to be explored,
With every step drawing closer to the dreams I’ve stored.

The Strength of One

Longing for a break
Yet no one to share the time
Solitude remains
Find my happiness alone
Being who I’m meant to be…

Poetry

Out of Place

In a world where I often feel out of place,
A constant struggle, a never-ending chase.
Surrounded by faces, yet feeling alone,
Yearning for somewhere that feels like home.

Daily Prompts

Future worries

What are you most worried about for the future?

I am not going to lie and say that I don’t have any fears for the future because I have many. One of the main ones is that I will end up alone without someone by my side to encourage me and help me navigate through life.

The thought of being alone can be daunting, especially when considering the uncertainties and difficulties that life may present. Having a partner, friend, or family member to lean on during tough times can provide a sense of comfort and reassurance. Whether it’s for emotional support, practical advice, or simply having someone to share experiences with, the presence of a supportive companion can make a significant difference.

I am working on this and I will continue to work on this fear.

No one to hold me, no one to chase

The days stretch on endlessly, a never-ending night
No one to share my thoughts, no one to hold tight
I long for connection, for someone to see
The loneliness inside me, the ache to be free

I reach out in the darkness, but no one is there
I cry out for comfort, but no one will care
I am lost in this void, this vast empty space
Alone in my loneliness, with tears on my face

But I know deep inside, that this too shall pass
That the sun will shine again, that this pain will not last
I hold onto hope, that one day I’ll find
A kindred spirit, a love that is kind

So I’ll weather this storm, this lonely night
And trust in the promise, that everything will be right
For even in my solitude, I am not truly alone
For love will find me, and make this heart its home.

Alone

Alone in the silence, I sit and I weep
My heart heavy with sorrow, my soul feeling deep
The emptiness surrounds me, a cold, dark embrace
No one to hold me, no one to chase

The days stretch on endlessly, a never-ending night
No one to share my thoughts, no one to hold tight
I long for connection, for someone to see
The loneliness inside me, the ache to be free

I reach out in the darkness, but no one is there
I cry out for comfort, but no one will care
I am lost in this void, this vast empty space
Alone in my loneliness, with tears on my face

But I know deep inside, that this too shall pass
That the sun will shine again, that this pain will not last
I hold onto hope, that one day I’ll find
A kindred spirit, a love that is kind

So I’ll weather this storm, this lonely night
And trust in the promise, that everything will be right
For even in my solitude, I am not truly alone
For love will find me, and make this heart its home.
