  Loneliness

Alone am I but no one cares
Is there no one to hear my pray
Loneliness is all that’s left for me
Was this for me to be my legacy?

Oh how for friends my heart did cry
To end for me all my lonely days
My husband’s love it was not enough
This loneliness for me was tough

To hear oh how my heart did long
The front door bells merry song
Alas and woe it was not to be
Death it came swift to claim me

Taken away from my loving family
Unaware of their deep love for me
No time to wish them a fond farewell
In the world of spirit I now do dwell

                                     Reginald F. Horton
