Aloneness

Aloneness is different from loneliness It is an occasion for personal growth It gives an insight into humanness And helps us realize our self worth Being with others continually Denies us from ever having a chance To look at ourselves objectively To build up our own self reliance Self reliance is the key to coping With acute periods of adversity It provides us with an inner strengthening To overcome and claim the victory Self reliance is extremely vital To avoid the feeling of loneliness Which can happen when there is denial Of other's support and togetherness If you feel contentment in aloneness It can help you to avoid a pitfall It provides an inner based happiness Which is the greatest happiness of all

I can empathise with your poem John as one can only reflect on through personal experiences once a repetitive cycle has been broken or withdrawn from. It seems Ironic how clearly one is then able to see the bigger picture introspectively reflected upon in a different and revealing light once viewed through a newly acquired set of eyes.
