Alone

 

This is…

What am I?

Alone

Not that sad empty alone

Or the free to breathe version

Just alone…with no one else

 

It’s such a sad word

Brimming with emptiness

To apply to self at this moment does not fit

I’m not sad or depressed

True I am not happy or joyous

Just here, in this place, alone

Content in my world

 

Quite yes it is quiet

The quite makes me alone

No other intruding voices

Not even the echo of mine

I am not alone

It is only quiet
