Theme: Suffering

All On Your Own

In your
Moments
Of deep
Despair
You’ll
Realise
That you are
All on your own

There will be
People near you
Offering you
Some subtle
Words of care
Your pain
They’ll be
Willing to
Share…
But their
Benign
Gestures
Will not
Suffice…
And you’ll
Still realise
That your
Pain is your
Pain alone…
And you are
All on your own

Comments on this Poem

Comment poignant, though the poet writes with a little detachment born out of close encounters with life and people one trusted to stand by.

the title says it all.
