Being Alone

Being alone gives me so much strength That, in my own company, I feel like I am skydiving Or deep sea diving Totally in control of the gears of my equipment But wholly compelled to follow those of nature! Being alone allows me to be my own Queen To shoulder the maims of my life myself And to blame myself for any wrong decision While applauding myself For any angel dust that may have been thrust my way! Pray, being alone gives me the opportunity to be human To wish to accomplish my dreams And to work hard at these To relax and attempt to face life at my own speed Without fearing to meet with the harshness of conventions! Being alone gives me my own individuality Yes, it takes solely a driven ambition to build a castle And to throw parties in its ballroom every Friday While ruling it with a sense of bliss For living in it is as exquisite as the sight of a rainbow! Being alone makes me the sole lover of my own self Mind you, see me not as a narcissist I do enjoy people's company and advice But I wish to protect myself from harshness Made of sensibility, I already know of the pain of abuse! 19th November 2017
