Comforting Loneliness [E] Reread it , realize we are in the same boat |
Greetings and welcome to writing.com! I identify deeply with this poem about profound loneliness. Just this morning I was like “girl, do you realize you think enough for five people?” I try to think everyone else’s thoughts for them, forever wondering if I’m annoying people when I say something or ask them a favor, wondering why they’re not reacting to my posts or reviewing my items or taking longer than usual to respond to something. In real life, it’s even more complicated, as I assume everyone thinks I’m “weird” and whatever I do or say is strange or out of the ordinary. And when I approach the “big questions” about the meaning of life, it becomes quite overwhelming and mind boggling. Your words are raw and sincere, and the rhyme flows well from beginning to end. I would suggest using Size 4 Verdana font to ensure readability and accessibility across devices. The row of boxes at the top of the text entry space are the buttons which help us with formatting here. You can click on the question mark to open up a useful handbook. I would also suggest choosing three applicable genres for your item; this helps people find it when browsing, and also gives more opportunities to be nominated for a Quill award. You could select “Emotional,” “Relationship,” and “Drama…” there are others. You could also submit this to my two favorite poetry contests around here: "First and Second Chance Poetry Contest" and "Shadows and Light Poetry Contest" These two don’t require a prompt and will take previously written items. Take care, thanks for sharing and keep writing My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
