Gypsie’s Wonderful World of Words

Shakespeare published 154 sonnets in his quarto in 1609. While the initial 126 are addressed to a young man, the final 28 are directed toward an enigmatic woman referred to as the dark lady.

Loneliness

Loneliness looking in from outside
painful
Loneliness excluded from within
excruciating
Loneliness without hope
debilitating
Loneliness darkens sunny days
dims the brightest lights

Extinguishes the faltering flame

    I am so sorry that you had to go through that! I really hope that you are feeling a little bit better😊! If you don’t mind, can I share a scripture that helped me overcome lonely feelings?

      Hi and thank you. This one bubbled out of the overwhelming feeling of loss and hope after falling deeply in love with someone unattainable. 😞
