I have always written poetry as a form of a couping skills to work out thoughts or emotions I was too afraid to let out. So, if everyone seems to be interested. I'll post a few of my poem's I am publishign in my first book. Mirandad seems to have a knack of writting on here already. Would like some creative comments on mine...Plus it heals heal the soul.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You promised me, well not exactly.....
&lt;br/&gt;You mislead me, yes exactly.....
&lt;br/&gt;I asked you not to, and you laughed, made a joke...and acted as if my worries were only silly worries... Thoughts that existed only in my world...
&lt;br/&gt;I trusted so fully, that i thought my ears were playing tricks on me.... Did you know I did not sleep last night?
&lt;br/&gt;I threw a slumber party.. and invited sorrow, betrayl, confusion, and a very small version of myself...as we listened to woman who's supposed to be "just a friend" boast of her conqueres last night.
&lt;br/&gt;Her voice did play in my ear throughout the morning... and afternoon... Making sure she let me know she had you last night. but I played it off.. acted like I was unaffected... while my stomach threatened to make me wear exactly how i felt....
&lt;br/&gt;I am sick
&lt;br/&gt;I am lost
&lt;br/&gt;I am small
&lt;br/&gt;I am ugly
&lt;br/&gt;I am pathetic
&lt;br/&gt;i am a wreck
&lt;br/&gt;I am worthless
&lt;br/&gt;I am broken
&lt;br/&gt;I am garbage
&lt;br/&gt;I am a liar
&lt;br/&gt;I am a failure
&lt;br/&gt;I am pointless
&lt;br/&gt;I am dying
&lt;br/&gt;I am losing
&lt;br/&gt;I am longing
&lt;br/&gt;I am trapped

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Besides being lonely, I am currently in Stcoholm Sweden where I moved from Northern Indiana just outside Chicago. I came here for better job prospects..but that did not pan out. I had a job working as a mental health Professional before I left in a group home for adolencent boys...long story short there was a young man sexually abusing another low functioning young man...I asked my boss what he would do about it but nothing did..I reported it (doing the right thing) and was fired, let go...My landlady was letting herself into my apartment and stealing and calling me on the phone and constantly harrassing me....it was a bad seen and my lease was up. Took a chance on a companion from tribe from here who had visited me in the USA every month..but she is a divorce and has a huge battle gooing on with her ex husband and has 3 children in need of psychological care...so OUT OF THE Frying pan into the fire so to speak. I am now returning to the USA to my only friend, but he lives with a woman who is abrasive and doesn't like me..I return home with meger funds..no job and a temporary place to stay. I thought having 5 degrees and going to college for 12 years I would not have trouble finding work....but I did. I  taught college for years and then as I was not tenured did not have my contract reknewed due to professional jelousy...since then I have taken low paying jobs that are not in my fielf of study studio fine arts and Art History..degrees as useless as toilet paper..last job Ihad paid just over 10 dollars an hour....scrapping to get by and working long hours and being stalked by my landlady, I had o time for dating and like now spent all my time on the computer. Now in two weeks I will be back in the USA....since I have beenhere 6 months I have huge culture shock, I have not driven my vehicle left in the Us for 6 months....all will be strange and a long hard road to a settled life again.....Why am I lonely? Because I have been doing this on my own for years...being strong, being couragious, positive, pushing myself...but when your not happy in your job and don't even have co -workers as friends.....shit yes it is lonely...being different doesn't help. I am not the regular football watching man..sigh. I sit here quite alone in Sweden wishing I had a warm and loving family to return to..but My Mother died young of breast cancer...my stepfather has remaried as has my sister and brother ad family ties have grown weak....seems they have no room or comapsion for me in their lives. I know I am currently in a shitty situation..I know I am returning to a shitty situation..the worst part is doing it all alone...and I am the type of person who thrives in groups and with suportive family and friends......so bsides being very lonely I am alone in crisis. any suggestions?&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Yes, the new year has finally arrived, even though we're all still reeling from all the shock, surprises and happiness that the previous one had to offer in our lives. I'd like to ask, if ever there was something (a personal trait, perhaps) about yourself that you'd like to see improved into the new year, what would that be?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For me, it's listening more attentively to my instincts, rather than my fears.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I recently came across some articles about the effects of being lonely, which is how I have felt for almost 4 years, waiting for my (currently ex, but I don't know) girlfriend to commit to me and move.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;These articles seem to confirm that the act of making me wait has caused me emotional distress. I hope that this can be taken into consideration when friends (mine and hers) wonder why I act so strangely. I also hope she would take that into account, and stop complaining that I've emotional bruises when I've been beaten with an emotional baseball bat!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I find it obvious that solitary confinement in prison is considered a punishment. In a worse state of absolute loneliness it is considered torture!
&lt;br/&gt;In the first reference below it is interesting they say that prisoners in solitary confinement have feelings of:
&lt;br/&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;       "depression, despair, anxiety, rage, claustrophobia, hallucinations,
&lt;br/&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;       problems with impulse control, and/or an impaired ability to think, concentrate, or remember."
&lt;br/&gt;I quite identify with a few of those!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Effects of Solitary Confinement and Social Isolation on Mental and Emotional Health:
&lt;br/&gt;• http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/bb/neuro/neuro05/web3/c2frintner.html
&lt;br/&gt;[from Neurobiology and Behavior - "Serendip" at Bryn Mawr college, Bryn Mawr, PA]
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Silent treatment does more harm than good:
&lt;br/&gt;• http://www.psych.purdue.edu/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;task=view&amp;amp;id=325&amp;amp;Itemid=82
&lt;br/&gt;[from Psychology at Purdue, West Lafayette, IN]
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Even NASA is aware than a large segment of the population of humans cannot be left alone for long durations, they plan to have family go with the astronauts to keep them from making mistakes, being depressed, and working far more effectively and efficiently:
&lt;br/&gt;• http://www.popularmechanics.com/blogs/science_news/4212593.html
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Anyone know of any other studies?
&lt;br/&gt;Is this how you feel about being lonely too?&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;In the little over 2 months since the sudden death of my wife, I have be revisiting some writings I had done years ago. One in particular about Valentine's Day from about 8 to 9 years ago, while I was going through a very painful divorce, seemed to stand out. While it had been written from a standpoint of pain and anger, it's strange I also included views on love lost. Something I am dealing with right now. So no matter how Love's Curse may be touching you, I felt it was time to share this...I would love the feedback... 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Colors of My Valentine 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Important Days are Represented by Colors 
&lt;br/&gt;A Birth…Blue or Pink 
&lt;br/&gt;A Birthday…Many Bright Colors 
&lt;br/&gt;A Wedding…White 
&lt;br/&gt;New Year’s…Silver and Black 
&lt;br/&gt;St. Patrick’s Day…Green 
&lt;br/&gt;Easter…Pastels 
&lt;br/&gt;4th of July…Red, White, and Blue 
&lt;br/&gt;Halloween…Orange and Black 
&lt;br/&gt;Thanksgiving…Brown, Orange, and Yellow 
&lt;br/&gt;Christmas…Green and Red 
&lt;br/&gt;And That Brings Us to Valentine’s Day… 
&lt;br/&gt;Good Old Valentine’s Day… 
&lt;br/&gt;Red is Traditional… 
&lt;br/&gt;Red is for the Heart… 
&lt;br/&gt;Red is for the Blood… 
&lt;br/&gt;Red is for the Anger… 
&lt;br/&gt;Ah Yes…the Anger… 
&lt;br/&gt;There is as Much Anger Associated with Valentine’s Day as there is Love… 
&lt;br/&gt;Good Old Valentine’s Day… 
&lt;br/&gt;For Many Lost and Lonely Souls…Valentine’s Day Represents Pain… 
&lt;br/&gt;Pain, Anger, and Resentment… 
&lt;br/&gt;Pain…of a Broken Heart…of a Lost Love…of an Unfulfilled Promise… 
&lt;br/&gt;Anger…at a Person, Persons, or Just Cupid in General… 
&lt;br/&gt;Resentment…Why…Why So-N-So…Why not Me… 
&lt;br/&gt;It Acts to Magnify what these Empty Vessels do not have… 
&lt;br/&gt;Would Black not be a Viable Substitute for Red…? 
&lt;br/&gt;Black… 
&lt;br/&gt;Yes, Black… 
&lt;br/&gt;Black is for Death… 
&lt;br/&gt;Death of our Innocence…Death of our Ideals…Death of our Dreams of a Perfect Love… 
&lt;br/&gt;Black is for Mourning… 
&lt;br/&gt;Mourning for Lost Love…Mourning for a Broken Heart…Morning for That which We May Never Find… 
&lt;br/&gt;Black is for Valentine’s Day… 
&lt;br/&gt;So This Valentine’s Day…Dress all in Black… 
&lt;br/&gt;Don’t Paint a Big Red Smile on an Empty Vessel… 
&lt;br/&gt;Show the World You are in Mourning… 
&lt;br/&gt;Show the World Your Life is Lacking… 
&lt;br/&gt;You might be Surprised… 
&lt;br/&gt;Someone could be Lacking Love Right Next to You… 
&lt;br/&gt;God…That Almost Sounded Romantic…Sorry 
&lt;br/&gt;Getting Back on Track… 
&lt;br/&gt;Now if Your Heart is Full…Your Love Complete… 
&lt;br/&gt;By All Means…Wear Red… 
&lt;br/&gt;But if Something is Missing… 
&lt;br/&gt;Dress All in Black… 
&lt;br/&gt;Deep Down… 
&lt;br/&gt;It Feels Better not to Pretend… 
&lt;br/&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hmm, how should I do this without complaining ? Well, I'll try to say this under a relaxed tone since I am aggravaded at the moment. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Some of you probably have never tried "dating services" online, but Im sure you are familier with "networking" since we'er all on tribe.net. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I just have one small problem with people I would like to get to know and probably end up dating them if thats even possible. Sadly there has been no luck for me on the internet or in the freeworld. In the free world its tough approaching someone, people pretend like they are so busy they never have time to settle in for any relationships so they are just open to "friendships." Im not even sure if people are scared or what but I do know that I hate it when people only want to be friends or all they use the internet for is to meet people they can become friends with. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;No offense to anyone here, but I personally hate friendships. There is nothing I cant do with myself that I could possibly do with another person. I can even have better conversations with myself than I can with people. Somtimes people expect you to do all the talking while they just sit there and observe just so they can blame you if they become bored or not entertained.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'd say that I am all alone, but I try very hard to do somthing about it. I day dream about being together with someone that feels the exact same way I do.  Friendships don't always lead to a relationship either. Thats just a stupid sterotype that everyone follows. For me its like, if you spend allot of time around me. You might just like me enough to date seriously. Friendships are boring, for odd reasons I can never focus really well around a girl Im not dating. If we are just sitting there talking like two locals passing time, I'll lose interest and wouldnt even care if they called me or not simply because we would just be "friends" and I dont put in any effort to keep a person around if all they want to do is be "friends." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Somtimes I meet people with a dozen opposite sex friends and they arent dating any of them, so its like "what am I?" Part of some sort of collection of single men or women ? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Single life, doesnt bring much joy in my life anymore. When I was a kid I didnt care about girls. All I cared about were video games, riding a bike, cartoons, and other stuff kids usually liked. I got older and wanted to date more but never got the chance to.....because all people want these days is more damn useless friends to hang out with. If its not friends they want or looking for, its a sex buddy or just a hang out buddy. Those are also useless too. If I wanted to hang out that bad with people instead of dating I'll just go live with my Uncle in Texas for Gods sake. Since thats all he ever does is "hang out." &lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I moved away from my family.  
&lt;br/&gt;I created a family out of friends in a new area.
&lt;br/&gt;I met a girl, we didn't leave eachothers sides.  
&lt;br/&gt;We became dependant on eachother, NEEDING eachothers company.
&lt;br/&gt;My friends didn't like her, so I didn't hang out with them as much.
&lt;br/&gt;She left, I got her to come back.
&lt;br/&gt;We would fight . . . ,we would make up.
&lt;br/&gt;We went through too much to explain in the time we were together.
&lt;br/&gt;It ended.
&lt;br/&gt;I had abbondon my family to be with her.
&lt;br/&gt;I had abbandon my friends to be with her.
&lt;br/&gt;I was alone.  Truly alone.
&lt;br/&gt;We had been in our new apartment for a month when she left.
&lt;br/&gt;I had never lived by myself.  I was also starting a six month program while i worked 40 hrs a week . . . graveyard.
&lt;br/&gt;I had dreams about her every day . . . normally i don't remember dreams.
&lt;br/&gt;I was paranoid  . . . afraid that while i was at work, she was getting into my place, stealing my things.  Afraid that stealing my heart and burning it before my eyes wasn't good enough for her.  While she didn't steal any of my belongings, I had allowed myself to continue talking to her, even though she had stolen my heart, and betrayed my trust.  This lead to her needing a place to stay, i let her in, she hurt me again.
&lt;br/&gt;I cried myself to sleep.  Wondering how someone could live with themselves after doing such things.  I would read old letters she wrote talking of our future together.  I would read them and scream at the top of my lungs, 
&lt;br/&gt;I would read them and cry, 
&lt;br/&gt;I would read them and punch 'till out of breath, 
&lt;br/&gt;I would read them and wish i could change what had happened.  At first i would wish i could have changed her, or what she had done.  Only focusing on what she had done to me.
&lt;br/&gt; Then I realized that it takes two.
&lt;br/&gt;I had done things that I could have done better.  As I said, I was in a program at this time and one of the things we had to say sometimes was the serenity prayer. . .
&lt;br/&gt;God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, 
&lt;br/&gt;the courage to change the things I can, 
&lt;br/&gt;and the wisdom to know the difference.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I annalyzed this a lot then.   Realizing that I couldn't change her, or what she chose to do.
&lt;br/&gt;I could only change myself, and work on the things in my life that I saw could use some work.  I had help recognizing and realizing my faults, which i needed.  And I am glad now that I had such an experience.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This breakup was . . . wow . . . coming up on two years . . . ago, and i still feel so alone.  I haven't had anything I would call serious since.  I don't find myself missing her any more (which is good), but I find myself . . .  well . . .  I still clutch a pillow sometimes so that I can fall asleep.  Or I sometimes I look at old photos and memory's, thinking of the good times.  I still long for someone very very much, which I think scares girls.  I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's hard for me to just go with the flow of a new relationship.  I feel like I'm bursting at the seems trying not to show too much love too early or seem too clingy.  Which girls don't want (at least none that I seem to find).  Even my friends sometimes confuse or misunderstand the love i have for them.  Which makes me feel more alone.  I am confused, lost in translation.  What to do?  How can I express myself and be understood? . . . completely understood.   I guess we all just want someone to understand us completely . . .&lt;/div&gt;

I moved in the name of love to the other side of the world (well almost [Spain]). The last year has been extremely difficult for it seems I don't know her anymore, and not like what you are doing today things but more like I don't feel part of her world or for that her universe. I am confused with this feeling I have that is stronger than anything I have felt before. 
&lt;br/&gt;  She is all I have in my life. I am scared because if we don't work ,,,,,, Shit I'm in Spain that seems to make everything that much more difficult. Any Ideas?&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;when you know it's coming... when you first catch that whiff of rejection, even though you've been told a hundred times it won't happen, it will be ok... but there is that change of tone, that slight pause in conversation... just a few little tiny words sprinkled here or there... when you know it's coming and you've already said, "just rip the bandaid off quick and don't care how much it hurts"... but you know that they can't do it that way because they don't want to be the bad guy - they tell themself they are doing it for you, but really, they are doing it for themself, they can't stand to be the one to do it, they can't stand to be the one to slice you off coldly and quickly even though you'd really, really prefer it, prefer to die quickly with a  tremendous gushing loss of blood and a scene of ugly carnage because at least then you'll know... at least then you can stop carrying around all the heavy false baggage of belief that you'd really rather just set down and walk away from because you know that inside that baggage is just the pain of the inevitable failure, the inevitable loss, the inevitable throwing away of you ... cos it's so much better to know than to try and keep pushing through the days hanging onto hope, hanging on to outdated promises and assurances... promises and assurances are only as good as the very second they leave the lips... the world is fragile and ever-changing... nothing lasts, nothing stays, nothing is infinite except chaos and the changing of it all... the ever-growing, ever-widening chaos of existence... the existential truth that, in the end, you are alone and nobody is coming to make it better, in the end all you have is you and if that "you" is someone you loathe more than anything else in the world, what does that say about what you are left with?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Turning and turning in the widening gyre
&lt;br/&gt;The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
&lt;br/&gt;Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
&lt;br/&gt;Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
&lt;br/&gt;The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
&lt;br/&gt;The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
&lt;br/&gt;The best lack all conviction, while the worst
&lt;br/&gt;Are full of passionate intensity.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Surely some revelation is at hand;
&lt;br/&gt;Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
&lt;br/&gt;The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
&lt;br/&gt;When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
&lt;br/&gt;Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
&lt;br/&gt;A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
&lt;br/&gt;A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
&lt;br/&gt;Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
&lt;br/&gt;Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
&lt;br/&gt;The darkness drops again; but now I know
&lt;br/&gt;That twenty centuries of stony sleep
&lt;br/&gt;Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
&lt;br/&gt;And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
&lt;br/&gt;Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;-- William Butler Yeats, January 1919&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We all feel like this sometimes so what do you do.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Find interesting way to go about meeting people.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Ask yourself am I really prepared to meet people and have an open mind and go with the flow. I.E. Am I not meeting people because my attitude is wrong or is holding me back.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you really want to meet people visit my community. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Lots of interesting information to read... It may change the way you look at meeting people.

&lt;br/&gt;I feel a thousand knives poking at my soul waiting to take me

&lt;br/&gt;Even though it brings certain doom to me 
&lt;br/&gt;A fool 
&lt;br/&gt;If I could run away right now, I would. Become a souless mass

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I NEED new friends! I recently lost a number of friends due to my "defective" personality, and I'm of the mind that I need some friends who can tolerate (not necessarily approve of) my "defective" personality. Of course in this world without consensus, no two people share the same view of what friendship is. Therefore, I've concluded that friends are required to find a compromise on their defintions of friendship. But that hasn't worked for me lately. One former friend of mine seemed to have decided that his definition of friendship is superior to mine. As a result, I had to follow his defintion of friendship (which includes being banned from his house for life). Since I thought (and still think) that's bullshit, I had to end the friendship. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Since there is a population of 6 billion, it should be entirely possible for me to find a few folks who can tolerate my "defective" personality. If not, then I guess that means life sucks far more than I thought it did.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;You know it's kind of funny in a sad way that I had to get back out on my own and was so excited about the chance to start over and was feeling renewed and good about so many things and then suddenly I stopped and looked around and realized I really was all alone! And not getting any younger. Mind if I park myself here for a while? I really need the company.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hi All!
&lt;br/&gt;       I'm new to this tribe, and just wanted to say hello!  I have been single for quite a while now,but the reasoning for that is because I have some MAJOR walls up.  I had let my guard down a year or so ago, for a guy that I'd known practically forever.  I was leery of him, because I'd been hurt many times in the past.  Well, to make a long story short...as soon as I let my guard and walls down,and begin to trust him, he broke all correspondence with me...I, like the fool that I am, emailed him, and tried to contact him CONSTANTLY for the last year(yes, I am a fool)to no avail.  Well, it turns out, that he had gotten married in that year, and didn't want to tell me...
&lt;br/&gt;again, I have been heartbroken...and feel that , at my age, I am planning to remain single for the rest of my life...
&lt;br/&gt;anyway, I'm sorry to have rambled...I look forward to getting to know you all!!!
&lt;br/&gt;Keep smiling...

But it seems to me that I can't get a girlfriend if I remain shy and socially akward. So to that I ask, what's wrong with being shy and socially akward? Why can't I remain be shy and socially akward and get a girlfriend?! Being shy and socially akward is part of who I am. So why can't I find any women who can appreciate those sorts of attributes?&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;To whom it may concern.
&lt;br/&gt;I am finding that attracting a mate is more difficult than I expected do in part to my future plans to sail and cruise my sloop to Latin America for the next few years. Ultimately I would like to circumnavigate and live a rather nomadic and simple life. But I will try Mexico this year and then take each season as it comes headed further south. I feel rather frustrated with what seems to be the norm of women who are more interested in domesticating me rather than joining me on an exploration of our earth. I have always had this in mind for my ultimate goal in life. I would die very unfulfilled if I were to not attempt this endeavor. I just wonder if I’m being realistic in my search. Is it so rare that a woman would want to join me? I find myself at another cross roads in life. I have a world to offer and a vision to share. But I find that I am rather shy in person and approaching someone can be difficult. Not impossible just not easy. I have above average intelligence, looks, aspirations and passion about what I care about. I am not dishrag and I get lots of nice guy points. Any advice or observations (takers) would be appreciated.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;This cold saturday night, the bitter blade of loneliness stings deep in the scars of past lost love...
&lt;br/&gt;OK enough of that maudlin crap.
&lt;br/&gt;How much of being alone is too much? I am very comfortable in my own skin, and the major problem I've had in most relationships is the need for the other person to be with me ALL the time. Every now and then I just want a couple of days to myself and that always causes major friction for some reason. Is it really too much to ask?
&lt;br/&gt;Mrrrrr,

I'm no longer welcome at the cartoonist group I used to deal with because the "head" guy didn't like what I said about certain things.  This mess also proves that if honesty is the best policy, then I'm General Pervez Musharraf: President and Chief Executive of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Admittely, I don't know much about friendship. But as far as I can tell, you can only be friends with someone if you become the kind of person they wnat you to be. If you're being yourself, however, there's a good chance no one will want you as a friend. Ti' estas viv' and kia fus^aj^o!

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A winter's day
&lt;br/&gt;In a deep and dark December;
&lt;br/&gt;I am alone,
&lt;br/&gt;Gazing from my window to the streets below
&lt;br/&gt;On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
&lt;br/&gt;I am a rock,
&lt;br/&gt;I am an island.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I've built walls,
&lt;br/&gt;A fortress deep and mighty,
&lt;br/&gt;That none may penetrate.
&lt;br/&gt;I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
&lt;br/&gt;It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
&lt;br/&gt;I am a rock,
&lt;br/&gt;I am an island.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Don't talk of love,
&lt;br/&gt;Well, I've heard the word before.
&lt;br/&gt;It's sleeping in my memory.
&lt;br/&gt;I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
&lt;br/&gt;If I never loved I never would have cried.
&lt;br/&gt;I am a rock,
&lt;br/&gt;I am an island.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I have my books
&lt;br/&gt;And my poetry to protect me;
&lt;br/&gt;I am shielded in my armor,
&lt;br/&gt;Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
&lt;br/&gt;I touch no one and no one touches me.
&lt;br/&gt;I am a rock,
&lt;br/&gt;I am an island.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;And a rock feels no pain;
&lt;br/&gt;And an island never cries.

&lt;br/&gt;  Although being alone is like a prison cell, I believe that it gives a chance to be One with All. Especially in a nature setting, when one surrenders to the fact of solitude, it appears that one communes with all invisable parts of the One, such as guides, gaurdian spirits, fairies or any other entities that lack human companionship. In a city setting it is much harder, but my question is this... Has being alone helped you to connect to other routes of communication, and how has it helped you evolve your spirit? It's obviously meant to be for the time being so how has it helped you to learn and love?

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Although you're mine, the doubt is there,
&lt;br/&gt;planted in my mind.
&lt;br/&gt;With time and space, it's clear to me,
&lt;br/&gt;the truth, I know I'll find.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I lay awake and ponder,
&lt;br/&gt;why things went this way.
&lt;br/&gt;Wishing it were different,
&lt;br/&gt;each and every day.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;With honesty comes trust,
&lt;br/&gt;and with them comes my heart.
&lt;br/&gt;You've had them all completely,
&lt;br/&gt;beginning from the start.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Your heart's with me, your mind's on her,
&lt;br/&gt;the fairy tale ends.
&lt;br/&gt;And deep inside I'm wondering,
&lt;br/&gt;If you're more then friends.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You lie to me, to hide the truth,
&lt;br/&gt;but swear you love me so,
&lt;br/&gt;Im confused; falling apart,
&lt;br/&gt;Should I stay or should I go?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I convince myself you'll change,
&lt;br/&gt;you've promised that before.
&lt;br/&gt;But in the end, I just don't know,
&lt;br/&gt;If I can do it anymore.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You are my life, you are my world,
&lt;br/&gt;you're everything I am.
&lt;br/&gt;And in my head, I still see you
&lt;br/&gt;as the perfect man.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My heart is yours forever,
&lt;br/&gt;this is the prize you've won.
&lt;br/&gt;For rarely in a lifetime,
&lt;br/&gt;do two hearts beat as one.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Even though there's a population of 6 billion (Didn't I mention that numerous times before?), I feel completely alone. I attribute this mainly to my overall nonconformity. I mean, even when I associate with people who share my interests, I still can't find anyone I can relate to. I'm sure tons of folks feel the same way. But I believe that the feeling is completely true in my case. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Till now, I always got by on my own 
&lt;br/&gt;"I never really cared until I met you 
&lt;br/&gt;"And now it chills me to the bone 
&lt;br/&gt;"How do I get you alone?

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I have discovered that the reason why I feel the undescribable need for connection that a lot of you describe is because I know what it is like to have the ultimate connection with someone.  Now, even if I am in a relationship, I am not truly happy until I find it again.  I am talking about a love that is so deep that a simple glance can speak total conversations, and a simple caress shakes the planet, and love so strong that your heart almost stops.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My question is...   to all those who feel the ache for something more...
&lt;br/&gt;Have you ever felt the perfect love before with someone?
&lt;br/&gt;Is your sorrow caused by the desire to get there again?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I am so obsessed with finding it again that I have started my own tribe to study these feelings called "The Only Thing Worth Fighting For"

&lt;br/&gt;A prayer to end the lonely
&lt;br/&gt;A prayer to feel what's real
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At any cost she said

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sorry, that was just a crafty inrto I had to place there. I have felt just as you do in your troubles. This post is here because of a serious problem that is currently going on in Uganda. These two links will lead you to information reguarding a new charity called Invisible Children. There is a civil war going on in Uganda. One side is a militaristic rebel force which continues its reign by abducting children from their enemies and conditioning them to become their own army. They use the slaughter of those children who ask questions and resist to instill fear and loyalty in those who say nothing and survive. They even threaten to kill children who are crying. I know that this seems far fetched but it is very real and Invisible children wants to do something about this to end the war and bring peace back to these people. The first thing to do is spread the word of what is going on. Please check out the websites and check some things out for yourselves. Tell us on the tribe if you find new information or know something that hasn't been mentioned yet. If nothing else, please don't forget that you have heard of this, and wait to see if more information begins to romour. Whatever you do, may God be with you, and bless you with grace and mercy.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Holidays, worse than ever. All the ads, all the "noise" about spending time with your significant other. I'm tired of not having someone to hold tight at New Years Eve, to say I love you and to cuddle with.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I have many friends out of the realm of cyber-space but this will be the fifth year I've had no one to hold tight at New Years. To still home alone is worse so I go out and get blind, falling down drunk once a year.  Depressing is the way to describe it. If our office shut down this year I'd stay drunk all week from Christmas Eve to New Years Day.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Drink and smoke, self-destructive yes, yet I have no reason to stop. No wife, no children to be there for. One man very alone in an island of friends. More like Robinson Crusoe on a desert island.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The one good thing I live in Scottsdale so I don't have the added displeasure of dealing with zero and sub-zero temperatures. And the beauty and magnificence of the desert and mountains.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Awesome sunsets, the mountains light up, no explode in a blaze of orange, red and gold.  Then the summers, monsoon season; ever see a thunderstorm roll and roil thru the mountains. The tops covered in gray, onyx and deep blue. The lightning streaking down and illuminating every crag and escarpment. Then the night, a brilliant platinum bathing the mountains in shades of silver.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Pure magic, more than beauty, mystical and spiritual.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So this too the F*CKING Holidays will pass in a drunken blur as if they do not exist. I'll wake to the New Year and revel in the magic of the Southwest.
&lt;br/&gt;
