ALONE

I'm alone, for my friends have departed
For their home on the Evergreen Shore,'
And have left me alone and sad hearted
To think and to miss them the more.

And IN vain am trying to write,
For my grief seems to be like illness
That has blinded my mental sight.
can only sit still and just wonder
If being alone is my fate.
Or because of one sad youthful blunder
That saw had made when too late
The terrible stiffness o'erpowers me
As listen for some loving tone,
And feeling of longing devours me-
As my heart reaches out for its own.
So what can for another,
That he would deem worthy to read,
For my fortunate sister or brother
Who never has felt heart need?
They will say that they can't understand me,
For they never have been quite alone.
As pessimist many will brand me
For writing in this bitter tone.
Yes. know that others are lonely.
And have lost all they had that dear;
But thinking of this. and this only,
Can bring comfort or cheer.
1t only augmens my own grieving,
To think of their suffering so,
For here there be no deceivng,
suffer the same. and know.
