Me Myself and I
Today I discovered I know so many
But they do not know 'ME'.
Today I discovered
how very lonely life can be
by 'MYSELF' when I am alone.
The first steps into "alone" are curious.
The first one is a sense of privacy, my own space.
The next few steps are touchy.
One minute it's good and solid,
the next 'I' feel like 'I' am sinking in quicksand.
Wondering if 'I' will ever make it back to stable ground.
Then my will power takes over.
'I' either run back to the hustle of the old 'ME',
Or take that giant step into my own space.
This is where 'I' realize alone is O.K.
Alone is a place I have total control of.
Sleep ,eat, drink, talk, sing, cry, construct or destruct.
The choice is all mine.
I have total control of 'ME, MYSELF and I'.
