Mark, a sad tale indeed. Well done though, nicely rhymed through out. Hugs my friend -

Thou Mark ... you've made depression sound so beautiful! How did you do that? :-) x
=^.^=

I am lost for words but in the words of Bon Jovi... To say I'm not alone doesn't mean I'm not lonely. I totally get this

Wonderful piece of writing Mark,
glad to see this nominated
well done fella

Michael :)

what a sad poem.. sorry your so alone Mark...

Im so glad this is nominated. You always inspire me with your wondrous words - a true wordsmith!

Judging Comment - Still lonely here by Mark points 7 - the title made me believe this piece was about being lonely as in with nobody to love then I read the piece itself (many times might I add) and realised that infact this, or so I think, is about depression and I have to say though this is a saddening piece it was beautifully penned with some extremely powerful imagery. Unfortunately depression can make us feel like we're all alone even if we're surrounded by people who love us.
