Falling Down

Have you ever had those days where you feel alone and feel like there isn’t a soul out there to talk to? I have, and actually those days have been the last couple of days for me. I don’t know what it is but I sometimes get the feeling that even Father isn’t enough to talk to. I know how bad that sounds, but it’s felt real. I have tried to find comfort and strength in him, but somehow I just feel lost. My husband has been away for the last week. He has been in New Mexico and now is visiting his side of the family in Oklahoma. He is expected home tomorrow, but it does seem like a long while since he has been home! I have been hanging out with friends, but I still feel alone. Have you ever felt like that? I have been in large crowds of people and still have felt alone. It is the most depressing state to be in. I feel like I have been run over by a freight train.

Someone out there who has ever experienced this before, I could use some encouragement. Pray for me. I will turn around soon; it’s just a phase that will soon be forgotten. Lord willing!

Thanks! Nicole!

Falling Down

Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now it's a different storyline
Like the straw he is clutching

Why has the sky turned grey
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray
Scarred by disgrace, I know that its over

Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?

Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught inside its own motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead

Howling at all this corrosion

Why did the luck run dry
Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me

Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?

You see I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find someone
out there to help me? I don't know.... Why...

Wow Nick, awesome writing. I totally know where you're coming from. I have learned that there is a difference between being alone and being lonely. Yes, they often go hand in hand. But most the time, for me, I can be alone and feel so far from lonely. It's usually when I'm around others I feel most lonely, because I know that there is an absence between myself and others that I just cannot fill. When you're around others and feel that way is when it's worst, because it seems like there's no way out. But just remember you are never far from my thoughts and I love and miss you more than anything, and I know the rest of your family feels the same. You are an incredible person with a brilliant mind and awesome heart. You are irreplaceable :) Love you sister!
