Loneliness

Today I am struggling with loneliness. It sucks. Most days I am content with the single life. I enjoy the freedoms. Today I feel like a bystander. A bystander to the lives of friends and families all around me. Today is a day where I am unsatified with mere existence.

I Dreamed A Dream

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving

Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hopes apart
And turn your dreams to shame

And still I dream he'll come to me
And we'll live our lives together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seems
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed


These lyrics resonate with me. It says it so much better than the few words I can string together. Lyrics are as sung by Susan Boyle.
