A Poem written by Vivian Ennis 06/05/2000
Through the years I have been alone
I have built a life on my own
Where no one else enters in
And sometimes the pain is so deep within
The loneliness that I have grown accustomed to
Still at moments can make me feel blue
Deep inside I still want to hide
So there will be no more pain inside
No one to ever enter in
And tear my heart up from within
As I spend all of my time with me
I dream of what it would be like to be free
Free to love once more again
And not be afraid that it would ever end
As I sit alone and read another book
I stop and take another look
I dream again in my heart
That there is love that would never depart
Would I know how to let love stay
Enjoying a mate throughout the long day
Or would I run oh so fast
From fear that it could never last
The time I spend all alone
In my big beautiful home
