Keep Doing You

Alone
It's a state of mind
A state of being
A state of existence
It's a common enough state

Alone
There's a finality
In the sound of the word
It reverberates through your being
It tastes bitter on your tongue
And sticks to your palate

Alone
It's something I like to be
More and more of late
But
Alone
It looks desirable
Pleasurable even
Others,, they look at me
And envy me my solitude
They don't know
I envy them their camaraderie

Alone
I like it
I hate it
One day I'll learn to leave it
But till then
Alone
It's all I know
