What are some good short stories/ songs/ poems on loneliness?

I have to choose three different example of books or poems or shorts stories or songs that fit into the motif of loneliness. I’ve already chosen a book (The Things They Carried, just in case you’re wondering) but I need help with choosing the others. Please help.

thoughts Of courageous Ulysses, by Cream (stable song, too). Usysses, by Strapping Fieldhands. i’m incredibly uncertain approximately Stairway to Heaven having something to do with Tolkein. some bands referred to as Hobbyhorse does mythology-appropriate song, and there’s a band referred to as the super Lakes delusion Society. The Poe album (that is totally stable) is by the Alan Parsons venture. there is likewise Frankenstein, by the Edgar wintry climate Band.

For the song, I can recommend a favorite by Jackson Browne, “Fountain of Sorrow.” Also, “Ain’t No Sunshine” is by Bill Withers. Links to the lyrics of both songs can be found below.

Good luck!
