Are You Lonesome Tonight?
 

For those of us who are feeling lonesome...this is a comforting spot to come to, to talk about it, keep each other company, vent, rant, cry, or whatever will make you feel better. Poems, vids, quotes, are all welcome.

Please respect posters comments. What may seem silly or ridiculous to some, may be real pain for others. So step in here with a kind and understanding heart. Give strength and support to your brothers and sisters...try to walk a mile in their shoes. And, as many of our moms used to tell us...if you've nothing nice, good, or helpful to say, don't say anything at all.

I am feeling a little lonesome tonight. I got out of work earlier than planned. My friends are out at local bars...but I am not feeling that scene. I am a chef and rarely get out of work before midnight. I was done at 9. So here I am on a friday night wearing my pajamas, eating taco bell, and cuddling with a bull dog. She seems content...so this will work for me too.

yep feel lonesome tonight. not sure what to do, except maybe sleep. what a way to spend a friday

Yes, I'm lonesome tonight. Are you lonesome tonight,
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
You know someone said that the worlds a stage
And each must play a part.
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart.
Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
And why I'll never know.
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than go on living without you.
Now the stage is bare and Im standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you wont come back to me
Then make them bring the curtain down.

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

My girl is on the other side of the country, my best friend's cat died, another friend had foot surgery and I am walkin' her dog, and well , I am lonesome tonight.

Tommi, thanks for the lyrics. Now I can print it out and sing along with Elvis! ;)

Cinderella, my life is alot like yours right now. Not alot of contact with anyone except for on here or with family. and right now i would prefer someone other then family :) .

Tommy that song speaks to where i am coming from at times. ty.

Ocnlver, I've spent most of the day sleeping...the consequence of that is, I won't be able to sleep tonight and will prob be up 'til all hours. *groan*

I'm sure it isn't quite as bad as mine, Ocnlver - you, at least have family...I too would rather be with someone - even family would do right now, lol.

you can have mine for the weekend :)

I'm lonesome every night actually :(
And the funny thing is that I live in a city with at least 2 millions inhabitants...
Since I moved here 5 years ago, I haven't really made friends.
Cinderella, I can totally understand what you are feeling...

Here is a (((big hug for the lonesome hearts of BF Planet)))

And here's a big ol' hug especially for you. Your handle suits you well, Softhearted. :)

Ok, folks, I have spent most of the day sleeping, but for whatever reason I am feeling tired, so I think I'll go to bed. I am very happy to see folks coming on this thread and interacting - even if it's because you're all lonesome. But remember what I said in my OP, we're all coming on here to bond and share our feelings. Goodnight my lonesome doves! :)

What a sweet-looking doggie - have fun on your walk. :)

I am. But, I'm getting used to it. I realize I've been lonesome most of my life, even when in a crowd of people. I live too much in my own head, maybe I should venture out sometime and check on the rest of the world.

I've been feeling lonesome lately. I miss having someone around with whom I can share, give and receive love...

:watereyes:

Yeah, I hear ya. I get lonely too.

yep, yep. Lola's lonely too

Even the Cowboi gets lonesome.......

why
 

Why is it, no matter what you do or who you're with or what's happening around you, or how much you work , or how much you laugh, or how far you run, etc... when you're lonely for someone , that empty raw stinging pain wont go away. Makes me incredibly restless.

I just wanted to say that I'm incredibly envious of your signature line. If you ever retire it, let me know as I'd love to steal it.

And yes. I'm lonely. I ache. I want. Crave. Need. I wish I could create my life as I need it to be. But then again, don't we all?

Loneliness creeps into the soul, like the thick fog creeps into the bayou.

Someone thought I am not lonely because I am partnered. Not so> I am simply not lonely. I enjoy singlehood.

Lonely tonight? Don't be come check out Mr Bent's Poll....

Hi,

I understand lonliness..I'm sorry you feel this...I can't imagine living in isolation such as you do...Yes, this site is a god-send; makes me know there are others out there feeling just like I do, and sometimes, just knowing that..helps.
