Satisfactory Sensation

Sometimes we humans need to be alone
To understand our own feelings.
In solitary, we get to know ourselves
through our deep and thorough examinations 
Of our thoughts and desires. 
We get the opportunity to look at our hearts and minds
To understand ourselves.
It is as if we see our lives in a clear jar
And can look at it from all sides. 
We are able to forget the world 
And all the stress and frustration it gives us.
The feeling of letting it all go can feel so good;
Like being set free after a million years of spiritual captivity. 
It feels as if you are walking through glorious Eden.
So why don't you join me in this great sensation;
Just the simple, satisfactory sensation 
Of being alone.
