Alone & Not Alone

There are people
who've thought
it was impossible
to be alone in a crowd
and that being alone
made you lonely
when silence should'nt mean
that something’s missing
nor should space
mean you’re empty
you're lacking
or that theres void
or even hollowness
that being solitaire
was something
to frown upon
it just means
that you get along
without company

being alone means
there is room
to simply be
without interruption

drowning out the voices
and distractions
to hear ourselves
more freely

which meaans that you’ve
cleaned out your closet
creating a space
without need
where the self can manifest.
