Poem: To End this Life of Loneliness
To End this Life of Loneliness
========================
One day you wake up and it is a cold world beyond your covers,
You look next to you, and roll over wishing you will never leave this bed,
Beyond your slumber, there is nothing comparably worth pursuing,
With no material possession, this is your happy place.
You know this life you lived is over,
All those things that mattered before are insignificant,
A new feeling greater in magnitude is no present,
All the things you need, all the things you want,
all these desires are gone
You want this to be permanent,
nothing of value will be left behind
You want this life to end
As you roll over to go back asleep,
you put your arm around her and kiss her head,
and dream of the new life you will share.

========================
One day you wake up and it is a cold world beyond your covers,
(you wake up in the morning, next to you love, she is so warm, making beyond the bed feel so cold in relations)
You look next to you, and roll over wishing you will never leave this bed,
(you look next to you, looking at your love, and you wish this moment could last forever)
Beyond your slumber, there is nothing comparably worth pursuing,
(the only thing you want, is to stay in bed with your love)
With no material possession, this is your happy place.
(there is nothing you want in the world, nothing that can make you happy but staying with your love)
You know this life you lived is over,
(you think you found the person you will stay with forever)
All those things that mattered before are insignificant,
(nothing matters in the moment except your life with your love)
A new feeling greater in magnitude is no present,
(the feeling of love is so overwhelming, that this is the only thing that matters)
All the things you need, all the things you want,
(the feeling of love is so overwhelming, that this is the only thing that matters)
all these desires are gone
(the feeling of love is so overwhelming, that this is the only thing that matters)
You want this to be permanent,
(you want this to never end)
nothing of value will be left behind
(nothing of your old life is of value compared to this feeling)
You want this life to end
(you never want to go back to being alone)
As you roll over to go back asleep,
(cuddling up with your love)
you put your arm around her and kiss your love's head,
(only now do you find out you are be bed with your love)
and dream of the new life you will share.
(you lay there and enjoy the moment)

I love this kind of writings that decribe human's true feelings or emotion, and it always provides an opportunity for me to think about life

Very well written,loneliness is a thing worse than death sometimes.Waking up in somebody's arms or smiling delicious breakfast is the simplest happiness but also the best one.We'd better not fall in love because of lonliness but once you are in love, you are away from lonliness ^_^
