Alone, But Not Lonely

I am alone but not lonely

Being lonely is ugly,

bad, and demanding.

Being alone is beautiful

and soul-searching

Being alone is blissful

and discovering yourself.

Feeling lonely is a curse,

depression, and suicidal.

Leave me alone, for a while

but remain in my thoughts

forever while I listen to the

ever-present cosmic silence.
