His New Year’s Wish

His New Year’s Wish

Written by:

Alone he sat, sank in his thoughts
Oblivious to the world around
As one thought drifted to the next
Only to return to that same longing

That longing to love and be loved
To have someone to laugh with
Share tears with
Someone to care for
For the rest of his days

Another year draws to a close
Minutes tick away
Days, weeks, months
Endless time alone
If only…
He had someone to call his own

    How very poignant this poem is. The aching loneliness and yearning expressed is certainly universal. Reminds us that there is always hope. Good work, Margaret. Let’s hope that we all have a Happy New Year.

    Thanks, Bruce, glad you liked my simple poem on the prompt.

    I think there’s a lot of lonely people out there that can resonate to this, especially at this time of year.

    Happy New Year to you and everyone else! :)
