Loneliness


Loneliness was not in my vocabulary. I never dread being alone because, I know that, loneliness is just a state of mind. For me, being happy is simple and I always find it through lonely times. I always seek a peaceful solitude because in that way I came to realize that being happy alone is somewhat more fulfilling than living w/ someone who can't make you happy.

Loneliness was not in my vocabulary. I always thought that those who seek companions are merely the weak kind of people. I always thought that, in my two decades of existence in this world, I've been living alone and I don't need anyone with me. It is foolishness to crave for someone's presence though you know that you will leave this world still alone.

Yes, loneliness was not in my vocabulary. It's just a ten-lettered word that gives some people that pathetic feeling of seclusion. I never give any deeper meaning to that useless word, but not until you came and go.

I realized that Loneliness is not just a simple situation or feeling of being alone. It is that abominable emptiness and that awful silence that makes you feel alone. It is those unforgettable memories that keep on replaying which make you yearn for someone. It is the fear of mourning again and again for that lost love that makes you seek his presence. And it saddened me to realize that, since you left, I had acquired that traumatic fear of loneliness and sorrow.

And now, I miss being alone...with you.
