ALONE
Alone seems like a good idea
in theory
a carving out
from others
Space and time and distance
to decompress
and re-inflate
But not to him.
Alone
is utter despair
isolation
at this stage
in this flow
to be alone
is to be damned
alienated
utterly without
hope
When does this transform
metamorphose
When will solitude be a welcome respite?
Not today
likely, not tomorrow
But one day, not so far down the road
Alone will be welcomed, embraced, even sought
Today, though, the world has forsaken him.
