Lonely man

"Always so unhappy
Taking shelter where he can
Here I am
Come meet a lonely, lonely man"

So goes the lyrics of a Presley song. As I read the lyrics of this song it suddenly occured to me, isnt it true?? Aren't we all so lonely ? Many will concur. I mean on the face of it people might appear so active and surrounded by people. He might appear to have no time for 'being lonely'. But corner him any day and probe him and there is a chance that he might concur too. Yes, each one of us is lonely, in heart. So what causes this feeling of loneliness? I do not know. Is this feeling natural? I do not know. How does one alleviate this ? Again I do not have an answer. Is it related to emotions? or is it physical ? Despite having all relationships why does this world seem so void at times ? So void that every moment appears like a burden.
And then you recover. The feeling goes away & the warmth of company enlivens you. And the burden is lifted. Only to re-appear. How long will this continue ?? Again, I do not know.

Some more lines from the song:


"It’s a lonely man
Who travels all alone
When he has no one
That he can call his own

Here I am
Come meet a lonely, lonely man"
