The holidays aren't fun times for everyone.
If you have no family and all your friends have moved away or are in committed relationships, you probably spend the holidays alone. If you have a family . . .

I took an hour meeting
When the bottom of the lake was blurry
And in its see through shade
The north star swirled its needle.
How much . . .

He sits at their dinner table,
Face toward the warmth from the window.
The eyes have betrayed him now,
The birds feeding are mere shadows,
His only companions some days.
The chill . . .

The night is long without you
and the space beside me is cold;
I hug your pillow close
and long for the warmth,
but nothing warms quite like you;
I toss and turn;
I miss your body
snuggling up behind . . .

i need your whisper
tonight
one that rumbles
into the pleasure
of all my olfactory
nerves
that ignites a giggle and
tickles the imagination
so close that your lips
dance against . . .

With the waves of dirty fields ,
The runaways arrived in the wasteland.
At the time when the moon’s mischievous light,
Charges as a bull with pointy horns . . .

Recently I read an article indicating that we are lonely and alienated from society. The article stated that instead of making real friends we are making false, virtual friends. We were much pitied. . . .

I want to go back, but I can't
Because there is no place left for me.
It seems so unjust I rant and rave
That here in this foreign land I have to be.

I am 19 yrs old, and I have a terrible time making friends. I seem to be "out of the loop" no matter what group of people I'm in. People never seem to like me if I act like myself, so in . . .

Alone in our togetherness
We're perfect at that.
Sometimes there is
No greater distance
Than the distance
Across a room.

Sadness melts through my heart
Loneliness seeps through my veins
Yearning for things I cannot have
Life used to be so simple
It hasn't been for years
I question my very existence
Quite often . . .

Someone on Gather is lonely. Don't ask me who he or she is, but know just because someone admits they're lonely doesn't mean there aren't many more. I was lonely once in my life, and it's . . .

Voice in the night calling,
lonely heart falling;
Easily entrapped
by words so sweet;
Captured by a kiss,
a heart's defeat;
Long and cumbersome
is the daylight;
Long and lingering

At this point I've been awake for about 16 hours. Time drags on and on but it just won't go away. I've walked from . . .

We sit across from one another
like hundreds of times before,
you with your fried chicken and salad,
me with my heart on my sleeve.

To date or not to date, that is the question. I have lived alone for seven months but I have not truly been without a romantic relationship for more than a month and a half. Now I am looking . . .

It is three o'clock in the morning and I feel like the only person in the world. There isn't even anyone on Gather right now that I can tell.
The birds are quiet, but my feline friends . . .

Sonya looked in the mirror. She did not recognize the cold eyes staring back at her. She put on her lipstick, and brushed her hair until it gleamed. The inner voice nagged her, but she . . .
