Not a relationship question but i wrote this recently, after getting out of a long relationship...Its kind of a snapshot of my lonesomeness, wondering what the next chapter in my life will be(even though i am more than happy its over i still felt compelled to write this sorrowful piece) I titled it LIFE

“LIFE”

Its always being certain but never knowing for sure.

When you try to slow it down, but everything’s a blur.

Its taking a first time trip but you’ve done it before.

Like buying a new house, and opening the same door.

Its moving to a new city , but it feels like your old place.

Hearing a name so familiar, and not knowing the face.

Its being afraid and not wanting to take that first step.

Its wishing you didn’t live but fearing certain death.

A journey to learn and to find your way, only leaving you more confused than the previous day.

It’s the moment when your future finally looks bright, but as time moves forward dim goes the light.

When you've almost achieved your goals and you can see the very end, only to find out you have to begin again.

Its that feeling of loneliness in a warm crowded room, the happiest day of your life, filling your heart with gloom.

It’s the race that never stops and the winners never crowned, it’s the game they call life, until you enter the ground.

Thank you so much! Yes, I feel much the same. Really well written, and I am a professional writer - so there's a true compliment for you. I, now at age 39, think I may just stay single for the rest of my life. I actually like not having to think about someone else. Really great friendships make up for a lack of a romantic interest.

I don't even feel like my bed is half empty - just more room for me to enjoy alone!

Please write more - you have a talent there!

That was some good observations there, and word play.

You kind of sound like you are under the rain cloud that is about to float away, that made your day dismay. A storm that had it's furry, and now getting warmer and sunny.

Keep up the poetry. Women love good poetry, if you can speak it well enough.

Hi there. Yes you pretty much sum it up. You are a good poet.

As you are happy to be out of this last relationship, because it went for a long time, there will be a bit of an adjustment. Because a long-term relationship, can become like a pair of comfy slippers.

As long as you keep your self-confidence up and feel good about yourself, stay positive and always have hope in your heart, you will love again in time. You can be sure of that. Don't rush into it though, there's plenty of time. Remember to have fun, laugh and be happy.

In the meantime, try not to get too down about it and try to make your life as interesting and exciting as it can be from now on.

Best wishes and take care.
