Loneliness
by Nick Alcantara ©
I've never known loneliness this way
Since you passed away
Living alone is hard to bear
In the still of the night
I often fear
Loneliness is here to stay
You always told me to find a partner again
If ever the inevitable may happen
If I have to find new love
The way we were
Maybe I may
Meanwhile loneliness lingers
Hoping someday it will go away
With Kris and Nate cheering me all the way

Addendum from Sherry Sharon
Out of our pain of loneliness comes His promise
that He "...will never ever leave us or forsake us."
(Hebrews 13:5)
