Closing Time Comments

Waltz alone wow! !

Dear LeeAnn, you expressed this heartfelt poem so well. Ive been through this in the past, however god opens a door for us when we least expect it.

Poignantly beautiful depiction of loneliness! So relatable! Don't we all experience it? Bravo!

U would get a good companion to free u from loneliness

Cheers! ! ! ! I don't drink as well. but share same loneliness like you.

Your disclaimer in Poet's note took this poem to a different level, how well you used word Alcohol to narrate the loneliness, yes it isolates you from you only.10*****

To be alone means to be with self and one can enjoy loneliness like you did.

Your poem is hauntingly beautiful. It is in my favorites.

What a beautiful poem! So wonderfully expressed and crafted. To my favorites.

If Charles bukowski was alive, or at least made better sense then he could, it would not sum the beautiful encapsulation of loneliness that this poem suggests. Bravo LeeAnn

I agree with Richard, loneliness is that feeling of being unloved, unwanted and on alone in this world, a feeling I also experience.

A heart touching write indeed. The last four lines are so beautiful. Thanks. Nice share.

LeeAnn, you've so perfectly captured the essence of loneliness in this very sad poem. Leonard Cohen and Janis Joplin would be proud! !

........blinds me in oblivion..... excellent.....
