    Feeling lonely isn't about not having people around, but Instead about not being understood by others. Which is why some of us, like to be alone.
    Wonderful video by the way, very insightful. I look forward to seeing more from you.

    Loneliness for me is feeling left out. I'd never dealt with it but now as I grow up theres this weird; a hollow like space in my heart; which bothers me. I feel uneasy and just prefer to be alone at that time. I feel like that chair at home which is everybody's favourite. Everyone uses it and the moment it is damaged, it is left all alone.

    I've never experienced the feeling of loneliness, nor have I been afraid of it. But it has left me with quite the problem of feeling incomplete when I'm not with myself but with others. I enjoy the company of myself and others, yes. But it is not the same, and it'll never be the same. And that, sometimes, makes me extremely sad.

  • @safim8217
    @safim8217 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Bukowski is back! I think loneliness is not being interested in all the things that excite others and because I don't feel their joy or enthusiasm I feel like reclusing. I wouldn't say this bothers me now but I have had years in the past where I felt this strongly.

    “There’s a bluebird in my heart” C.B.
    The cure to depression is embracing the pain and knowing that it’s apart of the human condition. We are broken creatures and that’s okay. We must never stop being being ourselves cracks an all. Stay alive my friends and save a beer for me, wherever you may be.

    Your video is mesmerizing - my goodness, you have a beautiful talent for filming all of life’s missed treasures, like the way a stream of water drips its last breath of beauty beside a dying leaf, before soaking into the soil for more growth. Or how the wind cleanses the wildflowers essence, before the last petal falls into winter. You’ve compiled these clips into an emotive masterpiece of art. Bravo my friend. It compliments this poem wonderfully. Gorgeous work ❤️

    I’ve been searching for a definition for loneliness…idk…it’s like this ache or this urge in the soul to shut up…sth inside hold you back from everything, it’s like everyone see sth but me….
    I wanted sth to make me accept it, to deal with everything alone u know, because no one understands this feeling,
    It’s funny, just trying to understand a feeling,
    And this poem…came at the right time….
