Loneliness On The Death Walk
While walking through my life,
I never feared my death,
The thought of loneliness was far from mind.
Yet since nearly dying many times,
Most recently a few days ago,
Loneliness seems like some great shadow over me.
I'll meet a love one day,
I always did assume,
Yet loneliness creeps upon me and looms.
My greatest fear is not death,
I know i'll return one day,
Yet loneliness terrifies me and it seems so possible.
The fear of dying alone,
Is my greatest fear of all,
I walk a life of death and loneliness stands alone.
Author notes
Let me know what you think.
Growing up i have been legally dead three times and since then i have nearly died several times.
Death doesnt scare me but it scares me to think that i might die young and with no one.

This is a very heart touching piece
You know it must be hard to have this happen and in you feeling unafraid of death is the greatest sign that you know you wont be alone . Within your life remaining you know God is right by your side and truly look about you at the ones he sends your way to be there for you . Most people thinks they are only loved by the ones we choose to be around us .Oh not true for everyday we are sent often strangers to touch our hearts and minds in some way . They may be standing right next to you or from afar but the love is always there . If you only knew but if we all knew the future
we wouldnt try anything else and venture to reach out to those who would otherwise never know us .So in turn we are the ones God sends to others about us . Not to fear being alone for none of us are ever truly alone .
In my heart and soul since God sent me to you and you now have come to me I will be tyhat friend you are asking to have and love .I am here so you wont ever be alone again . Message me anytime and remember for all the people you encounter in your life should you pass alll their minds will come together and you will see us all there for you . Love Patty
