Carnivale

Couples as far as the eye can see
Some with strollers
Some walking hand in hand
Surrounded by a sea of couples
I stand alone, my thoughts as companion.

Tonight I fight with reality
My heart wants not to believe
I feel like I'm walking backwards
Present hurling by in a blur
My stomach queasy

When will this ride be over?

  1. Aloneness follows and haunts me, yet I am not single. I still feel so alone. I know I need to make God the center of my universe. No other human can fill the void, the emptiness, the aloneness. Only God can make you whole. Only God can ease the feeling of being alone, the empty feeling. I too, look at couples and feel nauseated. They look happy, why am I not happy? Why do I still feel alone? God is the answer. I know this, yet struggle with it constantly. I fight it. I fight God. He does not want me to feel alone, as He is right there with me! I choose to ignore Him, I choose to stay in my emptiness. I need to stop trying to do things on my own. Me do! Me do! I know what I need to do, so why don't I just do it? I'm rambling, sorry, my point is that when you feel that aloneness: Cry out to God, because no other human being can fill that void, only God can make you feel whole. Only God will comfort you in the way you need to be comforted. Only God.
