My Lifeboat

The whirlpools of loneliness

were pulling me down,

you were my lifeboat.

 

With all my effort,

I forced myself

to push towards you.

 

Your kisses, your smiles

your touch saved me

from my lonely life.

Hi Shirley, nice cameo of a poem. IMO the first line would read better without 'the' giving it added oomph.

Loneliness is a topic most people experience at certain times, some strangely enough especially when in a crowded room so the subject matter will resonate.

Great piccy to draw in the eye.
