Loneliness by Charles Bukowski

[@maybeoneday3890]

being lonely isn't the worst feeling, but being surrounded by people who make you feel alone is

I been listing to his poems and put tears on my eyes he is very powerful

[@letmetellyousomething123]

There's a kinship,a knowing behaviour, without having to describe it , within those who side with the likes of bukowski .

"This terrible itch for solitude" Half a second into the video, I knew it would enamor me beyond measure and find a way into my heart. And it did.

[@meanwhileinespoo1265]

Loneliness steals nothing from others ... it gives back energy for those who think they need company...

[@angel79nunn]

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.

[@Nidhi-ll3yq]

Perfectly said !

Facts 💯💯💯💯I would much rather be alone than in the presence of bullshit 💯

[@mr.t6142]

Agreed. If you dig underground fiction, read Thomas C. Stuhr Various generes. Low cost.

[@someone9457]

I bring it up but it gets overlooked so I quit seeking help. Seeing it slowly devour what made me, me. Every day I just accept it cause that's all there is. Time is ticking tho as always

[@neelam9197]

Gosh this is perfect. Loneliness is the only feeling that doesn't bothers me anymore. I had made a peace with it.... Better be alone than to surrounded by ppl who don't understand you.

[@scvman992000]

Yessssssss

[@ashp8069]

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.

When I found Mr. Bukowski, I immediately felt comfort. Finally another person I could relate to. Thank you Mr. Bukowski.

[@SelfDiscoverU]

The room is quiet now The only sound is my heartbeat Loneliness is here.

[@somamandal1033]

This man made loneliness appealing to the souls that never really fit the mould of society!

[@awsome2awsome]

“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.

[@sashadideeda9825]

The only person that can make Bukowski better…. Is you. Thank you🙏

[@naturenerd_Swiss]

This poem is so me. I love it. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem.

[@jleenh]

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.

[@fulgore1]

Being around people and feeling alone. Being alone and feeling alone. It's disconnection from the self.

[@safim8217]

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.

[@perpetualponder6851]

He changed the poem a little bit but it's still just as powerful. The first time I read this poem was the first time I felt understood.

[@Lili-Benovent]

It's not poetry, it's misery in print.

[@wiseman68]

Bukowski gives words to some of my deepest feelings

[@syntheticteapot]

Real loneliness is not necessarily limited to when you are alone.

[@mycelium8]

Being alone is way better than someone wanting plenty from you.

[@sleyndsworld8202]

I love Bukowski and you - for making this. Beautiful work bud!

[@Shakshiesque]

This man has my heart. I've never felt any other writer like I feel Mr. Bukowski.

[@alifewithpoetry]

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 ❤️

[@medicine2202]

Isolation is my cure for loneliness, its the moment i start to think of being with outhers, is whene i feel the most alone.

[@Sh67817]

I loved the voice which narrated this beautiful poem with perfection. ❤️ Bukowski is love.

“Some one might call it a curse, While others despair it as a gift. One way or another everyone need to go through it, Just to try to understand others. Who fell the same way”

Loneliness is the price we men must pay for greatness, never forget that

[@sashadideeda9825]

🤔🤔🤔… just men?

[@Milton..]

@@sashadideeda9825Loneliness isn’t sexist, Loneliness doesn’t care what piece you carry between your legs. Loneliness affects every human being.

[@updaterequired1173]

Sure there's women who are truly alone but men far exceed that in every capacity... In my experience women usually will always some kind of man helping her but there's legit men out there who are truly alone and that's just facts.

[@archykhn4513]

For anyone wondering, men indicated to both men and women. In old literature men and he, these pronouns are gender neutral. And as a female, i feel extraordinarily lonely sometimes but i dont want meaningless company either. So I've been always alone. The guy who runs this channel has helped me go through and enhance and accept loneliness. I love you guys all. Have a great day

[@noorabd6185]

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…. Thank you❤️🙏

[@guydude439]

This video was recommended to me while I was reading Factotum by Charles Bukowski. I can definitely see where some of the inspiration lies... Truly a disturbed author.

[@sashadideeda9825]

At least he was honest in his absurdity 🤷‍♀️

[@Regular_guy12]

Why I feel so related with this 🥺

[@2104T34]

Yes you can deal with this Get in the safe place Get a breather There might be the right path around the corner Just make it there Once you’re out of it you’ll find the true meaning And even if it’s not there you’ll still have a chance You’re in control it’s your game Don’t give in into their game Whatever the game is you’re calling the shots Make sure that’s what you want ❗️

[@DNortRyan]

Two things, first of all, you have to bear in mind that these are the words of a man living in LA, I’m from Ireland and living in Spain and the people here are very friendly and not stupid. There are good people out there, once you get away from the dopes. And there are some nice folks from LA

[@delgustelou-anne4900]

Not really, wrong vision. It was an intelligent man, and the world specially now become more and more stupid. I feel his words. If you consider him to be pretentious it’s because you didn’t ever felt loneliness ether you are a part of the stupidity in both case I would advice you to change.

Summing up most Bukowski's work in two words, introverted and painful. He must have been the most miserable person in the World, not worth listening to.
