To those who cant understand the word feeling.... you dont have to be alone to feel alone.

Answer 1

This has been published, and is copyrighted, but this is something I once wrote during a period of depression:

I Cry At Night

I cry at night, while I’m alone, trying hard not to make a sound. The tears slip wistfully down my cheeks, down my chin. I bite my lip so the sobs cannot escape from me, and my throat feels clogged with the effort of maintaining the silence. I breathe in a ragged breath; my heart pounding and the tears continue to flow. There is no rhyme or reason that started them; they start on their own. It is as if they are solitary beings and they realize that nights alone are the only time they can appear. I wipe furiously at my cheeks, a very childlike gesture, with the hope that I can dash away these unwanted tears, and I wonder what good do they bring? Lightly, like a moan, the sobbing begins to escape…first as a deep inhaled breath, and one sob always brings friends. Now I shake, the effort to remain silent is a fierce struggle of its own. I can’t breathe, I can, but it feels like I can’t. These ragged breaths, barely a second between them make me feel as if a welcome death will come at any moment. These thoughts only make the crying worse. The tears flow fast now, a faucet leaking from my chin and no one to wipe my eyes. The sobs are muffled by a pillow; a pillow that I furiously pound on as I try to stem the crying. I feel like an infant, not sure of what I need, just that there is an intense need within me. The tears have stopped, but the sobbing continues. An agonizing sound, like a tree dying, ripping from my insides, tearing at my soul as it weakens me. The solitude, the quiet peace of the night, is now long gone, replaced by a horror that I cannot control, nor can I let it control me. Still, I am alone.

I hope this helps!

P.S. Not depressed anymore, and quite happy, so I wish you the best with your book.

Answer 3

I think that is why most of us are here on Yahoo answers. We are reaching out to touch other peoples' hearts and minds to give us a feeling of connecting with others.

Answer 4

There is alone and then there is lonely. Which do you mean? Being alone is different than being lonely. Lonely is a sad, depressed and alienated feeling. You can be alone and not feel at all lonely.
