I Like Being Alone
There Is Me... My life has been a lonely one. Thrown into chaos from the very start, with no-one but myself to pull myself through. I came to the conclusion that we are born alone and we die alone; therefore we must ultimately be alone. Everybody needs somebody... But who can be my somebody when there is nobody? Nobody but me.
So I decided to be my own somebody. I would carry myself when I no longer had strength, I would comfort myself when I feel sad, I would dry my own tears. The way I saw it; if everybody else in the world disappears and I am completely alone, who do I have but myself? Well, there is me. So I might as well work on having a better relationship with myself. Liking myself. I'm going to be stuck in my own company for the rest of my life after all.
It worked. I like being alone now. I enjoy my own company. I enjoy my thoughts and my humor, even if no one else enjoys it. I do it for myself. I am my own best friend, and I must admit, it makes loneliness much easier to take.
